Short-Term Rental Revenue Forecasting

Short-term rentals can generate significantly higher gross revenue than traditional leases, but they also have higher operating costs and variable income.

Revenue Drivers

  • Nightly rate: Set based on comparable listings, location, amenities, and seasonality
  • Occupancy rate: The percentage of available nights that are booked
  • Cleaning fees: Often charged per stay and can cover cleaning costs
  • Average stay length: Longer stays mean fewer turnovers but sometimes lower nightly rates

    • Seasonal Considerations

  • Peak season rates can be 20-50% higher than off-peak
  • Occupancy rates vary significantly between peak and off-peak periods
  • Minimum stay requirements can affect occupancy

    • Revenue vs. Long-Term Rental

  • STR gross revenue is often 1.5-3x a traditional lease
  • But operating expenses are higher: cleaning, supplies, utilities, higher insurance, platform fees
  • Net income advantage is typically 20-50% above a long-term lease in favorable markets

    • Lösungsbeispiel

    $175 average nightly rate, $225 peak rate for 4 months, 65% average occupancy, 85% peak occupancy, $125 cleaning fee, 3-night average stay, 3% platform fee.

    1. Peak nights booked: 4 x 30 x 85% = 102 nights
    2. Off-peak nights booked: 8 x 30 x 65% = 156 nights
    3. Peak revenue: 102 x $225 = $22,950
    4. Off-peak revenue: 156 x $175 = $27,300
    5. Total stays: 258 / 3 = 86 stays
    6. Cleaning revenue: 86 x $125 = $10,750
    7. Gross revenue: $22,950 + $27,300 + $10,750 = $61,000
    8. Platform fees: $61,000 x 3% = $1,830
    9. Net revenue: $61,000 - $1,830 = $59,170
