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 New Orleans: Mardi Gras; Jazz Fest and French Quarter Festival; Essence Fest and Sugar Bowl; Convention traffic at the Morial Center. Guests I price for: Festival groups and couples on 3 to 5 night stays in the Marigny, Bywater, Uptown and the Garden District. Where I start: Mardi Gras and Jazz Fest premiums with 4-plus-night minimums, hurricane-season floors, and licence-compliant positioning by neighbourhood.
For New Orleans hosts I configure PriceLabs or Wheelhouse with Carnival, Jazz Fest, Essence, Bayou Classic and Sugar Bowl dates, neighbourhood-specific weekend rules, summer floors and storm-season terms, all based on homes with similar permits and locations, so each neighbourhood is priced from its own festival calendar.
The service in general is described on my airbnb revenue forecast page; this page covers how I apply it in New Orleans.
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.
“New Orleans is a festival city with strict rules about where short stays are allowed. Mardi Gras and Jazz Fest can be priced with confidence months ahead, and they should carry long minimum stays. Summer and hurricane season need a very different approach. Before any of that, I check the permit, because the rules differ sharply by neighbourhood and property type.”

The Sugar Bowl opens the year and Carnival season builds from Twelfth Night, so I raise weekend rates steadily as parades start and keep parade-route homes priced above the rest.
St. Patrick's parades, the Tennessee Williams festival and French Quarter Fest keep weekends busy, so I price each event weekend individually and keep weekdays flexible.
Jazz Fest weekends at the Fair Grounds make Mid-City and Esplanade homes the most valuable in the city, so I price them highest and hold the weekdays between the weekends firmly.
Heat and storm risk thin demand, but Essence Fest over July 4th, Satchmo SummerFest and Southern Decadence on Labor Day give strong dates, which I price separately above a lean floor.
Saints games, Halloween, the Bayou Classic over Thanksgiving and the holiday season keep weekends full, so I load each date and keep minimum stays modest outside the big weekends.
Price Mardi Gras weekend and both Jazz Fest weekends as the top bands, with 4-night or longer minimums.
Add French Quarter Festival, Essence Fest and Sugar Bowl as their own date premiums.
Load big Morial Convention Center shows as weekday premiums for homes near downtown.
Lower floors for July to September and add weekly discounts, while keeping Halloween and autumn weekends priced up.
Confirm the permit type before deciding how many nights and guests the listing can take.

Real feedback from PriceLabs pricing strategy sessions with Alaa.
Alaa is a consummate professional! Patient, thorough, efficient and effective in communicating.

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 New Orleans: Mardi Gras (February or March), Jazz Fest in late April to early May, and October to December events. Late April to early May: Jazz Fest weekends at the Fair Grounds make Mid-City and Esplanade homes the most valuable in the city, so I price them highest and hold the weekdays between the weekends firmly. October to December: Saints games, Halloween, the Bayou Classic over Thanksgiving and the holiday season keep weekends full, so I load each date and keep minimum stays modest outside the big weekends. 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 New Orleans: July to September heat and hurricane season. Late May to September: Heat and storm risk thin demand, but Essence Fest over July 4th, Satchmo SummerFest and Southern Decadence on Labor Day give strong dates, which I price separately above a lean floor.
Mid-City and Esplanade Ridge: Walkable to the Fair Grounds and City Park; I give Jazz Fest weekends the strongest premium here and price the rest of the year for couples and families. Uptown and the Garden District and Marigny and Bywater get their own treatment. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i choose the comp set from the part of New Orleans 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 far the home is from the parade routes, the Fair Grounds and the French Quarter, because festival guests pay for proximity and plan their stay around it.
Festival groups and couples on 3 to 5 night stays in the Marigny, Bywater, Uptown and the Garden District. Demand is driven by Essence Fest and Sugar Bowl and Convention traffic at the Morial Center. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i base length of stay and booking window assumptions on how these guests book.
Before any of that, I check the permit, because the rules differ sharply by neighbourhood and property type. New Orleans is a festival city with strict rules about where short stays are allowed. That is the view I bring to Airbnb revenue forecast in New Orleans.
Mardi Gras, Jazz Fest and French Quarter Festival and Essence Fest and Sugar Bowl are the dates I price first for Airbnb revenue forecast in New Orleans. Late May to September: Heat and storm risk thin demand, but Essence Fest over July 4th, Satchmo SummerFest and Southern Decadence on Labor Day give strong dates, which I price separately above a lean floor.
Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In New Orleans the first gains from Airbnb revenue forecast usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: lower floors for July to September and add weekly discounts, while keeping Halloween and autumn weekends priced up. 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 New Orleans I would start from October to December: Saints games, Halloween, the Bayou Classic over Thanksgiving and the holiday season keep weekends full, so I load each date and keep minimum stays modest outside the big weekends.
