Gross Rental Income

Gross rental income is the total revenue earned from a vacation rental property over a given period, including nightly rate revenue, cleaning fees, guest service fees retained by the host, and any ancillary income such as upsells or pet fees. It represents the top-line earnings before any deductions for operating expenses, management commissions, maintenance costs, or taxes. Gross rental income is a foundational metric for evaluating property performance, calculating cap rates, and projecting cash flow. Property managers use gross rental income to benchmark properties within their portfolio and against market comparables.
