How do I get Airbnb rental data like occupancy, revenue and nightly rates?

Where can I get Airbnb rental data?

It depends on what you're looking at. A whole city, one specific address and your own software each need a different BNBCalc tool, while comp sets inside BNBCalc Markets cover a group of listings you pick yourself:

If you don't know where to invest yet, start with BNBCalc Markets to compare markets, and if you already have an address, go straight to the Calculator.

How do I get Airbnb market data for a city?

Open BNBCalc Markets, pick a country and click into a market, and you'll find the market-level figures on the Marketwide Stats tab: cards for annual revenue, occupancy rate, average daily rate and lead time (how far ahead guests book), with gross yield in US markets. On the Markets plan, the selectors above the cards switch them between the last 12 months and the last 2 years, a single bedroom count, and the Low, Average or Top earners tiers, which group listings by how much they earn.

The Listings tab goes a level deeper. Each active listing appears on the map and as a card with its revenue potential and nightly rate, and on the Markets plan its Stats panel adds occupancy, actual revenue and more. The stats above the cards follow the map, so zooming into one part of town gives you that area's figures, and you can filter the listings by bedrooms, amenities, rating and more.

How do I analyze Airbnb data for a property before buying?

Type the address into the BNBCalc Calculator, and BNBCalc finds comparable Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com listings nearby and turns them into an annual revenue estimate, a nightly rate and an occupancy rate for that home. The comps table under the estimate shows each comp's own figures, including what it earned from real bookings over the past 12 months and what it could earn if it were open for booking all year, which is the figure the estimate is usually built from.

From there, the analysis carries on into expenses, financing, cash flow and returns, so you see the property's cash flow and returns after costs as well as its gross revenue. A free BNBCalc account includes 2 free analyses, and after that the Calculator plan gives you unlimited ones.

How do I track specific Airbnb listings?

Save them as a comp set in BNBCalc Markets. A comp set is your own group of competitor listings in one market, and BNBCalc averages their revenue, occupancy and nightly rate and compares them with the market. Click + Add on any listing to put it in a set, then Export whenever you want a CSV of the listings and their figures.

Keep in mind that comp sets need the Markets plan.

How do I get Airbnb data into my own software?

Use the BNBCalc API. You send a property's address or coordinates, plus its bedrooms, bathrooms and guests, and the API builds a property analysis with the same comp search the Calculator uses, then returns it as JSON: projected revenue, nightly rate and occupancy, the comps behind them, expenses, cash flow and returns, and a link to a hosted report. It has no monthly fee and charges $0.20 per report.

Where does this Airbnb data come from?

All of it is BNBCalc market data, built from listing details, nightly rates and booked and blocked nights on Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com, and BNBCalc refreshes it once a month. A property estimate is only as good as the comps behind it, so it's at its strongest for common home sizes in active markets, and you can check and tighten the comps yourself.
