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 St Andrews: The Old Course and golf tourism; University of St Andrews graduations and term dates; The East Neuk fishing villages; Edinburgh day-trip and overflow. Guests I price for: Golfers on 3 to 7 night stays, graduating students' families and American visitors. Where I start: Golf and graduation premiums, Open year contracting and Scotland's short-term let licensing.
I set up the pricing tool so ceremony days, golf tournament weeks and East Neuk summer weeks each carry their own rate and minimum stay, and so last-minute gaps in the darker months drop to a sensible floor rather than sitting empty or selling for next to nothing.
The service in general is described on my airbnb revenue forecast page; this page covers how I apply it in St Andrews.
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 St Andrews forecast depends on whether The Open is coming, when the university holds its ceremonies and how strong the golf bookings look. I build forecasts that separate golf, graduation and coastal demand, and I show owners an ordinary year next to an Open year, so expectations are not set by a single exceptional summer that may not return for several seasons.
My first step is a forecast with and without a major golf event, so the owner sees exactly how much of the income depends on it.
Many golfers prefer cooler autumn rounds and the student year restarts at the same time, so I treat this stretch as a second season and hold rates well into October.
Winter graduation brings a short burst of family demand late in the term, so I price those few days high and let the rest of the period ease gently towards the January floor.
Crail, Anstruther, Pittenweem and Elie sell harbour views and fish suppers to families on longer stays; I lift the Pittenweem Arts Festival week in August and protect summer weeks.

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 St Andrews: Graduation weeks in June and summer golf season, with The Open when held at St Andrews the highest. July to August: North American golfers fill the town while families head for the harbour villages, so coastal cottages run on whole weeks and town flats stay on shorter golf stays. September to October: Many golfers prefer cooler autumn rounds and the student year restarts at the same time, so I treat this stretch as a second season and hold rates well into October. 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 St Andrews: January to February. November to December: Winter graduation brings a short burst of family demand late in the term, so I price those few days high and let the rest of the period ease gently towards the January floor. January to March: I set a realistic floor for the cold months and keep weekends open for Edinburgh and Dundee couples walking the Fife Coastal Path, rather than waiting for golfers who arrive in spring.
St Andrews town centre: Walking distance to the links, the university quads and West Sands, so golf and ceremony dates lead the pricing and short stays are worth accepting. East Neuk villages and Leuchars, Guardbridge and Tayport get their own treatment. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i choose the comp set from the part of St Andrews 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 property handles golf bags and early tee times: secure storage, a drying space and flexible check-out decide whether a golf group pays the top rate or picks a hotel instead.
Golfers on 3 to 7 night stays, graduating students' families and American visitors. Demand is driven by The East Neuk fishing villages and Edinburgh day-trip and overflow. For Airbnb revenue forecast, i base length of stay and booking window assumptions on how these guests book.
I plan the golf dates, the academic dates and the coast as three separate jobs. St Andrews is a golf town first and a university town second, and both calendars decide the price. That is the view I bring to Airbnb revenue forecast in St Andrews.
The Old Course and golf tourism, University of St Andrews graduations and term dates and The East Neuk fishing villages are the dates I price first for Airbnb revenue forecast in St Andrews. January to March: I set a realistic floor for the cold months and keep weekends open for Edinburgh and Dundee couples walking the Fife Coastal Path, rather than waiting for golfers who arrive in spring.
Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In St Andrews the first gains from Airbnb revenue forecast usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: sell East Neuk cottages in Crail, Anstruther and Elie on weekly summer stays, then short breaks outside July and August. 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 St Andrews I would start from July to August: North American golfers fill the town while families head for the harbour villages, so coastal cottages run on whole weeks and town flats stay on shorter golf stays.
