Your profit estimate

Enter your details to calculate an estimate.

How this estimate works

Booked nights = available nights × occupancy ÷ 100. Estimated bookings = booked nights ÷ average stay. Bookings can be fractional because this is a monthly average forecast.

Revenue = nightly revenue + cleaning fees collected + other monthly revenue. Costs include your chosen percentage fee bases, per-booking costs, cleaning, per-night expenses, and all entered fixed monthly costs.

Estimated cash profit = revenue − entered costs. The annual projection repeats this month 12 times; it does not model seasonality. Profit margin is shown only when revenue is greater than zero.

This is a cash planning estimate before income tax, depreciation, and upfront investment. If you enter a full mortgage payment, principal is treated as cash outflow. Include escrow costs only once. Use the break-even calculator to find the nights needed to cover costs. Estimate consumable quantities with the original rental supply calculator, then price them using your own purchases.
