Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Phoenix?

Gross bookings per Phoenix listing averaged $36,139 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Arizona average: $35,793), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Phoenix listing brings in $7,230 in March, its best month, and $2,720 in September, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 36% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 3.8 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $9,380+ a month, about 3.2 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $5,430 or more, roughly $2,500 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $2,910 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,420 or less, about half of the median.

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.

March earns about 2.7 times what September does

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Phoenix Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Phoenix Airbnb took in $36,139 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $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 $3,640 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $4,150 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $2,280 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,660 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 HOA or condo fees.

How Phoenix's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Phoenix listings are booked on 70% or more of their nights, against 49% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $185 adds about $1,870 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $315 a night or more, against a median of $185. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings. For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about $3,200 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, March brings the average listing about $7,230, against $2,720 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Phoenix listings average 4.82 stars, and 47% carry Airbnb's Guest Favorite badge, which guests can filter for.

What a listing keeps comes down to the figures this page measures: nightly rate, nights booked and the months it's open. A listing at the top-quarter mark takes in about $5,610 a month, against $3,010 for the average one.

Occupancy

What Is the Airbnb Occupancy Rate in Phoenix?

Phoenix listings were booked on 46% of the nights they were open over the past year, 2 percentage points above the Arizona average (44%) and 5 points above the U.S. average (41%). In a typical year, occupancy swings from 41% in August to 67% in March.

The busiest tenth of listings are booked about three times as often as the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) are booked 84%+ of open nights, 35 points above the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) fill 70% or more, roughly five nights a week.
  • Typical properties (median) fill about 49% of open nights.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) fill 28% or less, roughly two nights a week.

March is usually the busiest month in Phoenix, August the quietest

Share of open nights booked, by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The 12-month rate of 46% averages each listing's whole year, slow months included; each month here counts only the listings booked in it.

Nightly rates

How Much Does an Airbnb Cost per Night in Phoenix?

The average nightly rate in Phoenix, known as ADR (average daily rate), was $277 over the past year, about the same as the Arizona average ($280) and about 13% below the U.S. average of $320. In a typical year, rates peak in February and March at about $310 and bottom out in July and September at about $230.

Prices span a wide range: the top 10% charge about 4.4 times the rate of the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) charge $510+ a night, about 2.7 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge $315 or more, about $130 above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) charge about $185 a night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) charge $115 or less, about 61% of the median.

February rates run 34% above September's

Average nightly rate (ADR), by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The 12-month ADR of $277 averages each listing's own rate across its whole year; the monthly points average listings month by month, so the two differ.

What Is the RevPAR for Airbnb in Phoenix?

RevPAR, or revenue per available night, divides a listing's income by every night it was open to book, so it rises with both price and bookings. In Phoenix it averaged $132 over the past year, from about $91 in a typical September to about $233 in a typical March.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $269+ per open night, about three times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $162 or more, about $70 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $92 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $52 or less, about 57% of the median.

March RevPAR is about 2.6 times September's

The 12-month figure of 44 days averages each listing's year as a whole; each month here averages only the listings with stays in it.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Phoenix

Yes. Phoenix allows Airbnb with a $250 city permit and a state TPT license, with no night cap. Fines start at $500, and lodging taxes on a stay under 30 nights total 13.07% on a direct booking and about 11.52% on an Airbnb booking.

Fewer than 1% of the 5,913 active listings in Phoenix display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply: some places don't ask hosts to show a number on the listing, and listing data doesn't capture every scheme.

The permit, operating limits and taxes on a stay are set out in the Phoenix Airbnb regulations, each rule linked to its official source and checked October 2026.

FAQ

Phoenix Airbnb FAQ

How much do Airbnb hosts make in Phoenix?

An active Phoenix Airbnb grossed $36,139 on average in the 12 months to September 2026, according to AirROI's tracking of 5,913 active listings. That is before cleaning, management, taxes and financing. Busier, better-run listings do far better: the top quarter took in $5,430 or more in a typical month.

How much can I make on Airbnb in Phoenix?

It depends most on the home's size, location and how it's run. The middle half of Phoenix listings earn between $1,420 and $5,430 in a typical month, and the top tenth $9,380 or more. For one home, enter its address and bedroom count in the Airbnb calculator: it compares the home with similar listings nearby.

What is the average Airbnb occupancy rate in Phoenix?

Listings in Phoenix were booked on 46% of available nights over the past year. That compares with 44% for the Arizona average. March is usually the busiest month.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Phoenix?

The average booked night in Phoenix cost $277 before fees. Half of listings charge between $115 and $315, so bedroom count and location move the price more than the average suggests.

Do you need a permit for an Airbnb in Phoenix?

Yes, you can rent out a home in Phoenix on Airbnb for stays under 30 nights with a $250 city permit and a state TPT license; there is no night cap and no rule that you must live in the home, except for a casita that received its certificate of occupancy on or after September 14, 2024. The Phoenix Airbnb regulations set out the permit, its cost, the taxes on a stay and the operating limits, each linked to its official source.

Is Airbnb profitable in Phoenix?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Phoenix Airbnb grossed $36,139 in the 12 months to September 2026, in line with the Arizona average. Run by its owner, with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, $23,179 a year (about $1,930 a month) is left before the mortgage or rent. A home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit, and a listing at the top-quarter mark leaves about $3,640 a month. Check a specific home in the Airbnb estimator.
