Gross bookings per Goulburn listing averaged A$34,393 over the 12 months to September 2026 (New South Wales average: A$46,850), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Goulburn listing brings in A$3,830 in July, its best month, and A$2,890 in September, its slowest. October runs within 2% of July, so either can come out on top in a given year. The swing is mild: the best month earns about 33% more than the slowest.
In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 3.5 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
These are monthly figures for listings active in each month. The annual average above also counts listings that operated for only part of the year, so it runs below twelve times these figures.

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, A$3,410. Each point is one month as recorded, averaged over the listings active in it. The best and slowest months in the text average each calendar month over the past two years, so they can differ from the highest and lowest points here.

July 2026 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in June 2026 and bookings in December 2025, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest.

Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Goulburn Airbnb took in A$34,393 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about A$1,930 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money. A listing in the top quarter leaves about A$3,460 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the A$2,520 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about A$2,140 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about A$1,670 a month.
These amounts come before housing costs. Where the mortgage or rent is less each month, the difference is profit; a home owned outright keeps it all after property tax, home insurance and any building or condo fees.
