Is Marrickville a good place for an Airbnb?

Marrickville is known for its food, breweries and the weekend markets at Addison Road, with the CBD a short train ride away and the airport close by. Guests include families visiting relatives, couples and travellers with early or late flights, and our readings show 73% occupancy across the suburb. Family homes and two-bed apartments suit most guests.

Marrickville is in the Inner West Council area, and NSW rules apply. Every short-term rental must be on the NSW Short-term Rental Accommodation Register, and homes let without the host present are capped at 180 nights a year in Greater Sydney.

Houst handles the day-to-day work for you.
