Nothing is sent to us and nothing you type is stored.Locked — the full analysisThe full analysis for one property, $10 onceYour inputs on the left are live and free, and the formulas below are public.

The maths runs in your browser the moment an input changes, and nothing you enter leaves the page — the formulas are public and the computed results are what the $10 unlock opens.Formulas used by the HostMath calculatorFigureFormulaBooked nights per yearnights available × occupancy %Stays per yearbooked nights ÷ average length of stayGross revenue(booked nights × nightly rate) + (stays × cleaning fee charged to guest)Platform / host service feegross revenue × platform fee %Property management feegross revenue × management fee %Maintenance & repairsgross revenue × maintenance %Cleaning coststays × cleaning cost per stayFixed annual costs(mortgage or rent × 12) + property tax + insurance + ((utilities + supplies + internet & software) × 12)Operating costsplatform fee + management fee + maintenance + cleaning + fixed annual costsNet cash flowgross revenue − operating costs (annual, then ÷ 12 for the month)Net marginnet cash flow ÷ gross revenueSetup amortisationsetup cost ÷ 24 monthsBreak-even occupancyfixed annual costs ÷ (revenue at 100% occupancy × (1 − combined fee & maintenance %) − cleaning cost at 100% occupancy)Break-even nightly rate((fixed annual costs + cleaning cost) ÷ (1 − combined fee & maintenance %) − cleaning fee revenue) ÷ booked nightsPayback on setup costsetup cost ÷ monthly net cash flowThree choices worth knowing aboutHotel-style fee, not the split fee. The default 3% is Airbnb's host-only service fee. Listings on the split-fee model pay roughly 14–16% instead — switch the percentage if that is you.Cleaning is revenue and cost. The fee a guest pays counts as revenue and the turnover cost counts as a cost, so a $90 fee against a $70 clean adds $20 a stay, not $90.Fees apply to gross revenue. Platform, management and maintenance percentages are applied to gross revenue including the cleaning fee, which keeps them conservative.What is not in the numbersIncome tax, sales tax, and any state or city nightly, lodging or occupancy levies.Big one-off replacements (roof, HVAC, hot tub) beyond the maintenance percentage.Interest-only vs repayment mortgage detail — the mortgage line is whatever you actually pay monthly.Seasonal swings: this is a year-at-a-glance average, not a month-by-month forecast.This is an estimate, not tax, legal or financial advice. Check the numbers against your own records and a professional before you commit money to a property.PricingThe preview is free: all 16 inputs, live, plus the formula behind every figure.
