Airbnb Profit: The Hidden Costs That Are Killing It (and How Mid-Term Rentals Fix It)

Описание: Airbnb profit is shrinking fast — and for many Phoenix investors, the hidden costs are to blame.

In this video, I break down the biggest expenses quietly eating away at your Airbnb returns and show you how mid-term rentals are fixing them.

Short-term rentals in Phoenix used to crush it. Now? Higher cleaning fees, new Airbnb platform costs, tighter margins, and unpredictable occupancy are cutting deep into profits. I’ll walk you through real numbers from Scottsdale, Tempe, and Chandler properties — and show you exactly why so many hosts are pivoting to 30–90 day mid-term rentals instead.

You’ll learn:

The real costs most hosts never track — and how they destroy ROI

What changed with Airbnb’s host-only fee model

How mid-term rentals drastically cut cleaning, turnover, and tax costs

Why management isn’t your problem — it’s your rental model

How to reposition your property for longer stays without losing income

What type of tenants fill these homes and how they’re easier to manage

If you’re an investor, host, or Realtor in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Chandler, or Gilbert — this is the reality check you need before your next “Airbnb update” email hits your inbox.
