Episode 1568
Airbnb is changing the way it charges hosts — and the update could impact how much real estate investors actually take home. Beginning October 27, 2025, Airbnb will phase out its split-fee model and move to a 15.5% host-only fee. Guests will see a flat price, but hosts will need to adjust their rates to protect margins.
In this episode, Kathy Fettke breaks down what the new structure means for property owners, how it could affect short-term rental profitability, and why some smaller investors may struggle while professional managers adapt more easily.
If you invest in short-term rentals or are considering it, this fee shift is one you can’t afford to ignore.
