Most hosts know their cleaning fee. Fewer know what a turn costs them once supplies, laundry, restocking, small repairs, and their own time are added. The number matters when you set expectations with a co-host, compare a cleaner's quote, or decide whether a short stay is worth taking.
Write the cost down per stay, not per month
A monthly total hides the spread between an easy two-night turn and a week-long family stay. Record the turn cost on the stay itself: cleaning, supplies, laundry, restocking, repairs, and anything you paid a third party for that turn. Keep the receipt with the entry.
Keep your numbers and public numbers apart
Public wage tables, risk data, and permit or tax information can give context for a cost. They are not your cost. Keep the two side by side so a reader can see which figure came from your receipts and which came from a published source, with the source and its retrieval date shown.
What StayTurn does here
Owner economics in StayTurn totals only the costs you enter. It never adds a vendor price, never estimates a number, and never presents a projected total as value received. Beside your entries, Spend and market shows sourced public context with the source and retrieval date on every table. The free turn-cost calculator at learn.stayturn.co works without the kit.
StayTurn files nothing, submits nothing, decides nothing, contacts no platform, and is not affiliated with Airbnb. It is not a PMS, not pricing, not scheduling, not review automation, not insurance, and not legal advice.
