Airbnb Host Money Tracker — Income, Expenses & Monthly Scorecard
Most new hosts can't answer one simple question: after cleaning, platform fees, and supplies — did that booking actually make money? This tracker answers it.
Hosting is a business, even a small one. Good records show whether you're really making money, make tax time easier, and take five minutes a week once they're a habit.
WHAT'S INSIDE (6 printable pages)
- Set your price first — the five pricing steps: comp nearby listings, start at or just under the market average, adjust for weekends and events, set a sensible minimum stay, and make the cleaning fee match the real cost
- Income tracker — one row per booking: date booked, guest, check-in / check-out, nights, nightly rate, cleaning fee, platform fee, payout (with a worked sample row)
- Expense log — one row per cost: date, what it was, category, amount, receipt filed
- Expense categories reference — the eight categories most hosts need (cleaning and laundry, supplies, utilities, repairs, furnishings, insurance, permits and taxes, software), with examples and how often each one hits
- Monthly scorecard — a 12-month table: income, expenses, profit, nights booked, nights available, occupancy % — one page that tells you if the business is working, and whether a slow month is a price, photo, or calendar problem
- The two habits that pay for themselves: a separate account or card for hosting, and photographing every receipt the moment you get it
WHO IT'S FOR
Short-term rental hosts (Airbnb, Vrbo, direct bookings) and co-hosts who want real numbers without spreadsheet software — especially first-year hosts heading into their first tax season.
HOW TO USE IT
Instant download after purchase — one PDF, yours to keep and re-download from your Payhip library anytime. Print at 100% on US Letter or A4 and write on it. Print extra income and expense pages as bookings grow; one scorecard page lasts a full year.
THE HONEST PART
Educational only — not legal, tax, or insurance advice — and no income or profit is promised; your numbers depend on your property, market, and platform fees. Keep your receipts, and let a tax professional advise on how much to reserve for taxes in your situation.
