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 Madison: Badgers football at Camp Randall Stadium; University of Wisconsin commencement and move-in; The Dane County Farmers' Market on the Capitol Square; Ironman Wisconsin. Guests I price for: Alumni and visiting parents plus Epic Systems corporate visitors on 2 to 3 night stays near campus, downtown and the isthmus lakes. Where I start: Game-day and graduation premiums with two-night football minimums, corporate weekday demand tied to Epic in Verona, and midweek pricing between event weekends.
For Madison hosts I set up PriceLabs or Wheelhouse with the Badger home schedule, Ironman and Dairy Expo dates loaded early, weekday rules for Verona business stays, and a Furnished Finder rate card so the winter calendar has a fallback.
The service in general is described on my airbnb revenue forecast page; this page covers how I apply it in Madison.
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.
“Madison is a university and corporate town. Badgers football Saturdays, commencement and Ironman Wisconsin create the peaks, while Epic Systems in Verona brings steady corporate visitors. January and February are quiet. I combine event premiums with corporate weekday pricing. The event dates are known well ahead, so there is no reason to price them late. The harder work is keeping weekdays busy between them, which is where Epic and university visitors earn their place.”

I lean on Epic visitors and medical travel with weekly and monthly offers, and set a realistic floor rather than chasing leisure weekends that rarely come in deep winter.
WIAA state tournaments at the Kohl Center and the Crazylegs run lift selected weekends, and May commencement becomes the anchor; I price those dates individually and keep the rest flexible.
Saturday farmers' market crowds, the Great Taste of the Midwest and late August move-in all reward weekend premiums, while I keep weekdays open for conference and Epic traffic.
Home football, Ironman, World Dairy Expo and Freakfest stack into one long peak; I load each date as it is confirmed and hold two-night rules on Badger Saturdays.
Winter commencement and holiday family visits give the month a short lift, so I price graduation weekend early and let the quiet weeks around it drift toward the winter floor.

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 Madison: September to November for Wisconsin Badgers football and June to September, spiking on home-game Saturdays, commencement and Ironman Wisconsin. June to August: Saturday farmers' market crowds, the Great Taste of the Midwest and late August move-in all reward weekend premiums, while I keep weekdays open for conference and Epic traffic. September to November: Home football, Ironman, World Dairy Expo and Freakfest stack into one long peak; I load each date as it is confirmed and hold two-night rules on Badger Saturdays. 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 Madison: January to February. December: Winter commencement and holiday family visits give the month a short lift, so I price graduation weekend early and let the quiet weeks around it drift toward the winter floor. January and February: I lean on Epic visitors and medical travel with weekly and monthly offers, and set a realistic floor rather than chasing leisure weekends that rarely come in deep winter.
The isthmus and Capitol Square: Between the lakes and close to Monona Terrace conventions, I price these for mixed weekday business and weekend markets, with lake views treated as a clear tier. Regent and Vilas near Camp Randall and Verona and Fitchburg get their own treatment. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i choose the comp set from the part of Madison 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 there is a distinct weekday product for Epic and university visitors, with a workspace, parking and clean invoices, since that demand behaves nothing like the football crowd.
Alumni and visiting parents plus Epic Systems corporate visitors on 2 to 3 night stays near campus, downtown and the isthmus lakes. Demand is driven by The Dane County Farmers' Market on the Capitol Square and Ironman Wisconsin. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i base length of stay and booking window assumptions on how these guests book.
I combine event premiums with corporate weekday pricing. The event dates are known well ahead, so there is no reason to price them late. That is the view I bring to Airbnb revenue forecast in Madison.
Badgers football at Camp Randall Stadium, University of Wisconsin commencement and move-in and The Dane County Farmers' Market on the Capitol Square are the dates I price first for Airbnb revenue forecast in Madison. September to November: Home football, Ironman, World Dairy Expo and Freakfest stack into one long peak; I load each date as it is confirmed and hold two-night rules on Badger Saturdays.
Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In Madison the first gains from Airbnb revenue forecast usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: set weekday and monthly rates for Epic corporate visitors. 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 Madison I would start from September to November: Home football, Ironman, World Dairy Expo and Freakfest stack into one long peak; I load each date as it is confirmed and hold two-night rules on Badger Saturdays.
