My take on Chincoteague Island
Chincoteague Island is close to the wider Chincoteague, VA market on average booking revenue, so the local bedroom comparison is more useful for narrowing a search. Two-bedroom listings average $19,965 in trailing-year revenue, compared with $22,751 for three-bedroom listings.
Among these qualifying groups, the yield comparison favors two bedrooms: median potential gross yield is 9.3%, versus 7.7% for three. The additional revenue in the three-bedroom group is not, by itself, a reason to pay more for a property. Both yield figures are potential, before expenses, financing and taxes.

About these figures
How is yearly revenue measured?
It is the average booking revenue a regularly available listing earned over the past 12 months, including cleaning fees and before Airbnb fees, operating costs and taxes. It is an estimate, not verified host payouts.
How is occupancy measured?
For each listing, BNBCalc divides the nights booked by the nights it was open for booking over the past 12 months, then averages the results. Nights a host blocked off are left out.
How is the nightly rate measured?
It is the average price per booked night over the past 12 months, including cleaning fees.
What is room-revenue potential?
It estimates what a listing would earn in a year from its nightly rates if it were available all year at its expected occupancy, based on its last 12 months of bookings. It excludes cleaning fees. It is an estimate, not income a host received.
What is gross yield?
For each listing, BNBCalc divides its room-revenue potential by an estimated value for a home with the same ZIP code and bedroom count, then reports the median. It is measured before expenses, financing and taxes, so it is not profit or a full return on investment.
Which listings are included?
Yearly revenue, occupancy and nightly rate cover listings of every type and size that were open for booking at least 127 nights over the past year (428 in Chincoteague Island). Room-revenue potential and gross yield cover entire homes with one to five bedrooms that were also booked for at least 30% of their open nights and have a matched home value.

What can't these figures tell me?
