My take on Winter Haven & Auburndale
In Winter Haven & Auburndale, qualifying listings with four or more bedrooms averaged $41,303 in trailing-year revenue, compared with $24,214 for three-bedroom listings. The larger group also had a higher median potential gross yield: 14.6% versus 12.1%. Its yield was above the wider market's 12.2% for four-or-more-bedroom properties, too.
Those yields measure annual revenue potential relative to home value, before expenses, financing and taxes. The larger group's higher revenue does not establish how much more to pay for a particular house; purchase price and operating costs still need comparison with similar-sized rentals.

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 (274 in Winter Haven & Auburndale). 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. BNBCalc shows no figure for an area with fewer than 5 qualifying listings.
How current is this data?
Figures are current as of November 2, 2026 and refresh monthly.
Why are these figures different from the Lakeland-Winter Haven, FL market page?
The market page summarizes all of Lakeland-Winter Haven, FL from a separate monthly market dataset. This page averages the individual listings in each area, so the two can differ. Use this page to compare areas with each other.
What can't these figures tell me?
They don't include operating costs, financing, taxes, insurance or the price of a specific home, and they don't show whether short-term rentals are allowed. Check local rules and analyze the exact property before you buy.
