Summary
Two-bedroom · Varese city · 8 months
Occupancy observed on the portfolio by area; base = −12 points; low = −27 points and nightly rate −13%. For a two-bedroom flat in Varese city, per month: low 45% at €60 = €820 gross → €615 to the owner; base 60% at €69 = €1,260 → €945; high 72% at €69 = €1,520 → €1,140.An indicative estimate, before tax (cedolare secca, the flat-rate rental tax: 21% on one unit, 26% on the second, above two units a business is presumed from 2026) and wear and tear. Not a guarantee or a promise of returns. Every sold page compares the base estimate with the actual result: the aim is for the actual figure to beat the estimate more often than it falls short.

How to read the three scenarios
Low, base, high: what changes.
Base
Observed occupancy minus 12 points at the area rate: an ordinary furnished home entering the portfolio with rates calibrated after the first month.
High
Occupancy and rate as observed on the portfolio: established, well-placed homes in season. The Varese-centre flat sold for €175,000 did this.
After costs
If you enter the property's monthly costs (utilities, IMU share, building charges), each scenario also shows what is left after them. Taxes stay out: they depend on your situation.
Questions about the simulator
Data, scenarios, what it does not say.
Are the simulator's figures a promise?
No. They are three scenarios calculated on the occupancy and nightly rate observed on our portfolio by area over the last 365 days. Your property can do better or worse: it depends on condition, furnishing, floor, aspect, season and how long the sale takes. That is why the real calculation is done on the address, free of charge.
Where do the data come from?
From the host statistics of the two Airbnb profiles that manage the BridgeRent portfolio (6,744 nights since 2021, 2,423 guest reviews), updated on 22 September 2026. Only properties with at least 12 months of history. The table by area is on the Lakes Region pages.
What does “to the owner” mean?
Gross bookings minus the 25% management fee (VAT included), before utilities, the IMU share, building charges and taxes (cedolare secca 21% on one unit, 26% on the second). Cleaning and tourist tax are paid by the guest. If you enter monthly costs, the simulator also shows the result after those costs.
Why is the base scenario below the observed occupancy?
Because the portfolio is made of homes that are already established, with reviews and calibrated prices. A home entering now starts lower: base = observed occupancy minus 12 points; low = minus 27 points and nightly rate minus 13%. The real case in Varese centre is the high scenario, not the average.
Does the sale slow down when there are guests?
No, by contract: viewings take precedence on the calendar, with an inspection before every viewing. Average booking lead time is 39 days, so dates are blocked a month ahead without losing bookings. If the home sells, we complete and management ends.
Can I use the simulator if I am not selling?
Yes: it also works for a second home you rarely use or a vacant property. In that case the months are the period you want to let, and the route can be managed short lets, a transitional lease or a 4+4: we look at it in the property analysis.
