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 Indiana Dunes: Indiana Dunes National Park beaches; Chicago weekend escapes via the South Shore Line; Michigan City lighthouse and outlets; Blue Chip Casino and lakeshore dining. Guests I price for: Chicago families and couples on 2 to 3 night summer weekends. Where I start: Summer weekend premiums with 2-night minimums, holiday-week pricing, and winter floors.
I run Indiana Dunes and Michigan City pricing on Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com in PriceLabs or Wheelhouse, with weekend minimums tuned for Chicago guests, holiday overrides for the Fourth and Labor Day, autumn football lifts in Michigan City, and winter floors that cover your cleaning and heating costs.
The service in general is described on my airbnb revenue forecast page; this page covers how I apply it in Indiana Dunes.
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.
A forecast here depends on beach access, town and season. A Beverly Shores cottage near the station, a Michigan City home by Washington Park and a Chesterton house inland all sell different summers, and their winters vary even more. I project month by month with low, base and high cases, counting summer weekends separately from weekdays and the long off-season.
I begin by pulling comparables at the same walking distance from the beach, rather than averaging all of LaPorte and Porter counties.
Every Friday and Saturday is valuable; I open summer early, hold the weekend minimum until about ten days out and keep weekday rates attractive for families who can travel midweek.
Warm September weekends still sell to Chicago couples and home football games lift Michigan City, so I shorten stays and price each weekend on its own merits.
Beach, lighthouse, outlets and the casino give year-round reasons to visit, so I price these homes on a softer seasonal curve than the dune towns.

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 Indiana Dunes: June to August, with summer weekends the highest. June to August: Every Friday and Saturday is valuable; I open summer early, hold the weekend minimum until about ten days out and keep weekday rates attractive for families who can travel midweek. September to October: Warm September weekends still sell to Chicago couples and home football games lift Michigan City, so I shorten stays and price each weekend on its own merits. 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 Indiana Dunes: November to March. April to May: Spring migration and the Indiana Dunes Birding Festival bring visitors before swimmers, so I lift Saturdays a little, keep Sunday to Thursday cheap, and start summer pricing at Memorial Day. November to March: Lake-effect snow and empty beaches mean I chase short couple escapes, casino weekends and hikers on the dune trails, with low floors and single nights allowed outside holiday dates.
Beverly Shores: A small, quiet town inside the national park with its own South Shore Line stop; I price homes here as premium car-free weekends and keep strict summer minimums. Michigan City and Washington Park and Chesterton and Porter get their own treatment. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i choose the comp set from the part of Indiana Dunes 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. Whether local registration and Indiana's innkeeper's tax are in place, since requirements differ between Michigan City, the small beach towns and unincorporated parts of LaPorte and Porter counties.
Chicago families and couples on 2 to 3 night summer weekends. Demand is driven by Michigan City lighthouse and outlets and Blue Chip Casino and lakeshore dining. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i base length of stay and booking window assumptions on how these guests book.
I price the beach walk first, protect summer weekends with two-night minimums and accept that winter is quiet. The Indiana Dunes is Chicago's beach weekend. That is the view I bring to Airbnb revenue forecast in Indiana Dunes.
Indiana Dunes National Park beaches, Chicago weekend escapes via the South Shore Line and Michigan City lighthouse and outlets are the dates I price first for Airbnb revenue forecast in Indiana Dunes. June to August: Every Friday and Saturday is valuable; I open summer early, hold the weekend minimum until about ten days out and keep weekday rates attractive for families who can travel midweek.
Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In Indiana Dunes the first gains from Airbnb revenue forecast usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: keep weekday summer rates a step below weekends and promote them to remote workers and families with flexible schedules. I review progress against your own occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, not a market average.
