REVENUE
Revenue from Scarborough properties
No Perth suburb has more entire-home listings than Scarborough, and the median one sits empty three nights in four. A $366 rate only needs 58% occupancy to pass $78,000, but with this much supply the nights do not come by themselves. An owner here is priced against more homes than in any other suburb, every night of the year.
| Past 12 months | Scarborough market median | Sepal Stays managed Perth |
|---|---|---|
| Occupancy | 26% | 80% |
| Average nightly rate (ADR) | $366 | $280 |
| Annual gross revenue | $33,915 | $78,000 |
Results vary with property type, condition, availability, pricing and demand, and past performance is not a revenue guarantee.
Data sources
Market figures are medians of entire-home listings in Scarborough from the Inside Airbnb Western Australia snapshot, 28 June 2026 (CC BY 4.0); revenue is Inside Airbnb’s estimate. Sepal Stays figures are rounded averages of our Perth properties between September 2025 and August 2026.
SHORT-TERM VS LONG-TERM
Scarborough short-term vs long-term rental
A long lease in Scarborough brings in about $46,540 a year across all property types. Our Perth properties gross 1.7 times that on short-term lets, before running costs. The gap is narrower than on the Cottesloe page partly because this table uses the all-types median, houses included, rather than apartments alone.
| Annual gross rent | REIWA long-term median | Sepal Stays short-term Perth |
|---|---|---|
| All property types | $46,540 | $78,000 |
| Gross revenue uplift | Baseline | 68% higher (1.7 times) |
Data sources
The long-term median comes from the REIWA Scarborough suburb profile (published suburb median, retrieved 15 September 2026), weekly rent multiplied by 52. The Sepal Stays column is the rounded average of our Perth properties; both columns show gross rental revenue before operating costs, which are usually higher for short-term rentals.
