A well-run two-bedroom in Surry Hills earns around $383 a night at about 76% occupancy, which works out near $106,300 a year before costs. Surry Hills is one of Sydney's most consistent inner-city short-term rental markets, driven by the Crown Street dining, bar and cafe precinct and strong corporate demand from the nearby CBD and South Sydney business corridors.
Weekend demand is strong year-round from domestic city breakers and cultural visitors who choose neighbourhood character over CBD proximity. Midweek occupancy is anchored by business travellers and design and technology professionals, making Surry Hills one of Sydney's more reliable year-round markets.
The team is professional, responsive, and truly understands what it takes to manage short-term rentals effectively.
I’ve been incredibly lucky with Alex Taylor: professional, friendly, and always helpful. He’s handled everything brilliantly - I’d give him 6 stars if I could.
For the past year, my Houst contact has been incredibly helpful - coordinating repairs, upgrades, and even being on-site when needed. Super reliable and accommodating.
The staff is available 24/7. Messages sent are replied to very quickly. The information about the properties is detailed and clear. Everything goes very smoothly.
The house is well maintained and clean, the dashboard provides up to date and historical information & the guests are taken care of.

Short-term rentals in Surry Hills are regulated under New South Wales planning rules and the NSW Short-Term Rental Accommodation framework. Properties used for short-term stays as non-hosted accommodation are subject to a 180-night cap in Greater Sydney unless an exemption applies. Properties must meet fire safety and amenity standards, and owners in strata buildings should check by-law restrictions before listing. Rental income is taxable under Australian income tax rules and must be declared to the ATO. Our team manages compliance as part of the service, and you can read the full detail in our guide to Sydney's short-term rental rules.
