Free Airbnb Income and Expense Tracker – Simple Monthly Spreadsheet for Hosts with Running Profit, Excel & Google Sheets, No Canva
Start tracking your rental money with this free Airbnb income and expense tracker. It is one clean spreadsheet tab for one property and one month: type the date, pick a category, add the amount, and the sheet adds up your total income, total expenses and profit for you, with a running profit total on every row.
It works in Excel and Google Sheets, with ten ready-made categories in a drop-down list (booking payouts, cleaning, supplies, utilities, repairs, platform fees, insurance and more). Sample rows show how it works; delete them and type your own. It is a simple log for your own records, not tax advice.
