The calculator returns an estimated average nightly rate based on comparable properties in each area. Monthly and annual projections assume 80% occupancy, which is typical for well-managed, multi-platform properties in strong markets. Net income figures deduct the applicable Houst management fee (from 12% in London, Paris, and Dubai; from 14% in other markets) to show what you would take home with professional management.
Estimates are generated using real booking data from properties managed by Houst in each area. The nightly rate reflects the average daily rate (ADR) for properties with a similar bedroom count in the same postcode or neighbourhood. This is more accurate than third-party scraped data because it uses actual completed bookings, not listed prices.
The projections do not include platform fees (Airbnb charges 3%, Booking.com charges 15%), cleaning costs (typically GBP 50-150 per turnover), or insurance. These vary by property and should be factored into your final decision. For the full cost breakdown, see our guide to the costs of running a holiday let.
London consistently delivers the highest nightly rates, with areas like Shoreditch, Covent Garden, and Kensington commanding GBP 130-250+ per night for a one-bedroom flat. However, London's 90-day cap limits annual short-term revenue. Edinburgh performs strongly year-round with particularly high rates during the Festival in August. Manchester and Bristol offer lower entry costs with solid occupancy rates.
The best returns depend on the balance between nightly rate, occupancy, property purchase price, and local regulations. A property in a secondary city with no night cap can sometimes outperform a London property on an annual basis despite lower nightly rates.
Estimates are based on real Houst booking data for comparable properties. They reflect average performance for professionally managed properties. Actual income depends on listing quality, pricing strategy, seasonality, and guest reviews.
The net figure deducts the Houst management fee (from 12% for London, Paris, and Dubai; from 14% for other markets). It does not include platform fees (3-15%), cleaning costs, insurance, or council tax/business rates. These should be factored into your decision separately.
