An Airbnb revenue forecast is a month-by-month projection of occupancy, ADR and revenue for one property, set beside comparable listings. Buyers use it to test a purchase, operators use it to check an arbitrage lease, and hosts use it to set targets for a live listing.
What I plan around in Aberdeen: the Braemar Gathering Highland Games attended by the Royal Family each September; Balmoral Castle and the Royal Deeside estates and distilleries; the offshore energy sector driving midweek corporate stays; the granite Old Aberdeen university quarter and North Sea harbour. Guests I price for: Energy-sector contractors on weekday business stays in the city, alongside summer visitors touring Deeside from Ballater and Braemar. Where I start: Blending a resilient corporate weekday base with leisure-led summer and Gathering weekends, and holding the Scottish short-term-let licence for both city flats and rural cottages.
I set up PriceLabs or Wheelhouse for Aberdeen hosts with weekday corporate pricing, monthly discounts for crews on rotation, and the Braemar Gathering, Offshore Europe years and P&J Live concerts as events. Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo then share the same rules, with Deeside cottages on their own weekly summer settings.
The service in general is described on my airbnb revenue forecast page; this page covers how I apply it in Aberdeen.
I project occupancy, ADR and revenue for each month in conservative, realistic and optimistic cases, with annual totals, RevPAR and seasonality.
I choose comparable listings by hand and remove inactive ones and outliers, so the benchmark is real and not a postcode average.
For a purchase or an arbitrage lease I set revenue against rent or mortgage and costs, and show the occupancy you need to break even.
A clear report with my reasoning for each assumption, suitable for partners, investors or lenders.
“Aberdeen blends energy-sector business with Royal Deeside tourism. Contractors fill weekdays in the city, while Balmoral, distilleries and the Braemar Gathering in September draw summer visitors. Scottish licensing applies to both city flats and rural cottages. Energy-sector demand has changed over the years, so I review weekday pricing regularly rather than relying on old assumptions, and let Deeside carry more of the leisure summer.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
Leisure travel stops, so I rely on energy contractors and offshore crews, offer monthly rates in the city and keep Deeside cottages at a low floor.
Business demand holds and spring brings walkers to the Cairngorms. I price city weekdays firmly and open short breaks for Deeside cottages.
Royal Deeside touring and distillery visits peak, so I sell Deeside cottages by the week and price city flats for visitors on their way north.
The Braemar Gathering and, in some years, the Offshore Europe exhibition bring the strongest demand. I price those dates individually in both the city and Deeside.
Autumn colours and shooting season keep Deeside alive, while city weekdays remain steady. I lower floors in November and price the festive weeks carefully.

Real feedback from PriceLabs pricing strategy sessions with Alaa.
Alaa is a consummate professional! Patient, thorough, efficient and effective in communicating. He not only made savvy adjustments to my dynamic pricing strategy, but also helped me to understand the reasoning behind his methods, granting me a better understanding of the PriceLabs platform. Strong work!
Airbnb host
Alaa was fantastic, going through each of the properties I had and gave great advice and actioned a great game plan. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to enhance their pricing strategy on PriceLabs. Alaa's experience goes beyond this which makes it very beneficial to have this holistic approach.
Property manager
Alaa helped me optimize my PriceLabs settings for my Airbnb listing and was very helpful and patient with answering any questions I had. He was also able to clearly explain why he made the changes he made, and it was obvious that he had a lot of experience in this field. I will definitely be back!

Busiest in Aberdeen: July to September for Royal Deeside touring and the Braemar Gathering, with steady business demand year-round. July and August: Royal Deeside touring and distillery visits peak, so I sell Deeside cottages by the week and price city flats for visitors on their way north. September: The Braemar Gathering and, in some years, the Offshore Europe exhibition bring the strongest demand. I price those dates individually in both the city and Deeside. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i model these windows month by month, so peak months carry the revenue they realistically can and not an annual average.
For Airbnb revenue forecast, i project the quiet months separately, which is what shows whether a purchase or an arbitrage lease survives them. Quietest in Aberdeen: December and January outside the festive weeks. October to December: Autumn colours and shooting season keep Deeside alive, while city weekdays remain steady. I lower floors in November and price the festive weeks carefully. January and February: Leisure travel stops, so I rely on energy contractors and offshore crews, offer monthly rates in the city and keep Deeside cottages at a low floor.
West End and Rubislaw: Granite terraces close to offices, so I price for corporate weekdays and longer contractor stays rather than tourists. Ballater and Braemar and Footdee and the harbour get their own treatment. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i choose the comp set from the part of Aberdeen your property is actually in, and remove inactive listings and outliers.
For Airbnb revenue forecast, i check this before projecting anything, because a projection built on a wrong assumption only looks precise. How the listing shows parking and distance to Dyce, the heliport and the industrial estates, since energy contractors care about commute more than city attractions.
Energy-sector contractors on weekday business stays in the city, alongside summer visitors touring Deeside from Ballater and Braemar. Demand is driven by the offshore energy sector driving midweek corporate stays and the granite Old Aberdeen university quarter and North Sea harbour. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i base length of stay and booking window assumptions on how these guests book.
Energy-sector demand has changed over the years, so I review weekday pricing regularly rather than relying on old assumptions, and let Deeside carry more of the leisure summer. Aberdeen blends energy-sector business with Royal Deeside tourism. That is the view I bring to Airbnb revenue forecast in Aberdeen.
the Braemar Gathering Highland Games attended by the Royal Family each September, Balmoral Castle and the Royal Deeside estates and distilleries and the offshore energy sector driving midweek corporate stays are the dates I price first for Airbnb revenue forecast in Aberdeen. September: The Braemar Gathering and, in some years, the Offshore Europe exhibition bring the strongest demand. I price those dates individually in both the city and Deeside.
Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In Aberdeen the first gains from Airbnb revenue forecast usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: price city and Deeside separately. I review progress against your own occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, not a market average.
The Airbnb revenue forecast is quoted per property after a short chat, with the scope and price confirmed before work starts. Comparing several candidate properties is scoped together. The scope of Airbnb revenue forecast is the same in every market, but the plan is not: in Aberdeen I would start from September: The Braemar Gathering and, in some years, the Offshore Europe exhibition bring the strongest demand. I price those dates individually in both the city and Deeside. To start, open the chat or email me with your property type and size in Aberdeen.
