Airbnb revenue management is the ongoing work of pricing every night, setting stay rules, managing channels and reporting results. It goes further than a pricing tool: I review the strategy as demand, events and your own pace change, and I explain every change I make.
What I plan around in Baltimore: Preakness Stakes; Naval Academy events; Annapolis boat shows and sailing season; Inner Harbor conventions and Ravens season. Guests I price for: Regional visitors and event travellers on 2 to 3 night stays. Where I start: Event premiums, sailing-season weekend rates, and winter floors.
For hosts I set up your pricing tool with Commissioning Week, Parent Weekend and the boat shows loaded for Annapolis, sports and convention dates for Baltimore, and weekly and monthly rates for medical stays near Johns Hopkins. Each city keeps its own comp set and minimums.
The service in general is described on my airbnb revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Baltimore.
I review demand and pace and make two or three price changes a week where the market calls for them, inside the tool you already use.
On Plus I also optimize listings, plan promotions, track competitor rates per listing and manage Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo together.
A monthly summary on every plan and a full ADR, occupancy and RevPAR report on Plus and Pro, so you see what changed and why.
On Pro I forecast demand, keep a 12-month pricing calendar, meet you monthly and review quarterly, and I set launch prices for new listings.
“Baltimore and Annapolis look close on a map but sell very different stays. Baltimore runs on the Inner Harbor, Ravens games, conventions and the Preakness, while Annapolis is a sailing town with Naval Academy weeks that sell out almost every hotel. Commissioning Week and the October boat shows are the dates I never let an Annapolis owner leave at normal rates.”

Leisure is quiet, so I lean on medical visitors near Johns Hopkins with weekly rates and keep Annapolis homes modest for legislative session visitors.
Orioles opening day and spring sailing lift weekends, so I raise weekend rates first and price Naval Academy spring events individually.
Preakness weekend and Commissioning Week fill both cities, so I price them as separate blocks with long minimums and open them well in advance.
Sailing, Orioles home games and summer festivals carry the season, so I hold weekend rates and price Plebe Parent Weekend in August as an Annapolis event.
The Annapolis sailboat and powerboat shows are priced as blocks, and Ravens home games lift Baltimore weekends, so I avoid any discounts this month.
Army-Navy weekend and the Eastport lights parade add December demand, so I price those dates as events and lower weekdays after Thanksgiving.
Price Naval Academy Commissioning Week and Plebe Parent Weekend as top Annapolis bands, opened a year ahead.
Add the October sailboat and powerboat shows as premiums for homes near the harbour.
Price Ravens home games and big Inner Harbor conventions for Baltimore homes.
Treat Preakness weekend as a Baltimore event premium, with 2-night minimums.
Lower January and February floors and offer weekly rates for medical stays near Johns Hopkins.
One listing and no time
You want pricing handled properly without checking the calendar every day.
A growing portfolio
You manage several listings and need one consistent, scalable method.
A property manager
You want owner-ready reporting and revenue leadership without an in-house hire.
Smart Pricing is not enough
Airbnb's own tool optimizes for Airbnb's fill rate, not your revenue across channels.
Send the listing links, your pricing tool and your goals. I confirm the plan level and the monthly price for your listing count.
I build the base, minimum and maximum prices, seasons, events and stay rules for your market before the first month starts.
I watch demand and pace and move prices and restrictions as the market does.
Step 4
You get the monthly report, and on Pro we meet, and I adjust the plan from the results.
Priced monthly by listing count on a graduated curve, so there are no tier cliffs. Plus adds 35 percent and Pro 75 percent to the Core price. Never a percentage of revenue.
| Option | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Core | Managed pricing, run for you every day | From $225/mo |
| Plus | Pricing plus listing and channel optimization | Core +35% |
| Pro | Full revenue management with a monthly strategy call | Core +75% |

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 Baltimore: April to October, with the Preakness in May, Naval Academy commissioning week, and sailboat shows in October. October: The Annapolis sailboat and powerboat shows are priced as blocks, and Ravens home games lift Baltimore weekends, so I avoid any discounts this month. May: Preakness weekend and Commissioning Week fill both cities, so I price them as separate blocks with long minimums and open them well in advance. For Airbnb revenue management, i raise floors and tighten minimum stays ahead of these windows and review pace every week, so the strongest dates never sell early at a shoulder rate.
For Airbnb revenue management, that is the first thing I check before taking on the pricing, because everything else sits on top of it. Whether the property has the correct city or county short-term rental licence, because Baltimore City and Annapolis both require one and enforce it.
Price Naval Academy Commissioning Week and Plebe Parent Weekend as top Annapolis bands, opened a year ahead. Next: price Ravens home games and big Inner Harbor conventions for Baltimore homes. For Airbnb revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a Baltimore property usually leaks the most.
For Airbnb revenue management, in the quiet months my job is to protect the floor, close gaps with length-of-stay and last-minute rules, and keep the property visible on every channel. Quietest in Baltimore: January to February. November to December: Army-Navy weekend and the Eastport lights parade add December demand, so I price those dates as events and lower weekdays after Thanksgiving. January to February: Leisure is quiet, so I lean on medical visitors near Johns Hopkins with weekly rates and keep Annapolis homes modest for legislative session visitors.
Annapolis and Baltimore homes priced from one comp set and commissioning Week released at ordinary late-May rates. I look for these first when I review Airbnb revenue management in Baltimore, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For Airbnb revenue management in Baltimore, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. Baltimore sells mostly through Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com. May: Preakness weekend and Commissioning Week fill both cities, so I price them as separate blocks with long minimums and open them well in advance.
Annapolis Historic District and Eastport: Walking distance to the Academy and the harbour; I price Commissioning Week, Parent Weekend and the boat shows highest and use weekly summer stays for sailors. Fells Point and Canton and Federal Hill and the Inner Harbor get their own treatment. For Airbnb revenue management, i set rates, comp sets and restrictions per area and per room or listing type, not as one citywide number.
Inner Harbor conventions and Ravens season, Preakness Stakes and Naval Academy events are the dates I price first for Airbnb revenue management in Baltimore. November to December: Army-Navy weekend and the Eastport lights parade add December demand, so I price those dates as events and lower weekdays after Thanksgiving.
