Vacation Rental Property Income & NOI Calculator

Enter your average nightly rate and occupancy by month, plus your average monthly operating expenses. This tool assumes a 30-day month for all calculations (100% occupancy = 30 nights, 50% = 15 nights, etc.) and estimates your Net Operating Income (NOI). A Property Management expense of 15% of gross income is automatically included in the operating expenses.

Monthly Operating Expenses (Average per Month)

Enter each expense as a monthly average. The calculator will compute annual totals and subtract them from your annual income to estimate Net Operating Income (NOI).
Property management is automatically calculated at 15% of annual gross income.
