Buying an Airbnb in Blacktown
Quick answer
What does it cost to buy in Blacktown?
**Can I buy an Airbnb in Blacktown?** Yes, in most cases. The home must be on the NSW STRA Register before it takes bookings, and an unhosted Airbnb in Greater Sydney is limited to 180 days a year, so the long-term rent has to carry the rest of the year. Over the last 12 months the median 3-bedroom house sold for $1,031,000 in Blacktown and $1,053,000 in Quakers Hill, a 4-bedroom house sold for $1,206,500 in Marsden Park, and a 2-bedroom unit in Blacktown sold for $464,000.

Before you buy in Blacktown
Four checks we make on every Blacktown property
- New estates in the north-westMany Blacktown house sales are in newer estates such as Marsden Park, Schofields, Melonba and Tallawong. We check any community scheme by-laws and title restrictions before you offer.
- 180 nights, then whatAn unhosted Airbnb in Greater Sydney is capped at 180 days a year. We test each home on 180 short-stay nights plus mid-term or long-term rent for the rest of the year.
- Fire safety for registrationThe home needs an evacuation plan and interconnected smoke alarms to go on the NSW STRA Register. We check what work is needed and price it before you sign.
- Long-term rent fallbackWe compare every purchase with what it would lease for, using real rents such as $650 a week for a 3-bedroom house in Blacktown.

The number an Airbnb has to beat
Long-term rent is your fallback
A 3-bedroom house in Blacktown rents for $30,160 to $45,240 a year long term, depending on the suburb. A short stay makes sense when it clears that comfortably after cleaning, platform and management costs, which is why we test both before you buy.
Follows the Houses / Units and bedroom buttons above. With several bedroom counts picked, each suburb shows the sales-weighted average of those sizes. Your suburb is shown first, then the 4 highest gross yields.

- Confirm ownership, finance, insurance and authority to operate the property as short-term accommodation.
02Do I need a New South Wales Airbnb registration or listing number?YES
Every hosted and non-hosted residential STRA property must be registered on the NSW Planning Portal before it is advertised.
The PID-STRA registration number must be displayed on the listing and the registration must be renewed annually.

- Approved traditional tourist accommodation categories are dealt with separately
Official sources: Official government source
03Is there a New South Wales short-stay levy or tax?NO
No current New South Wales tax or levy specifically imposed on ordinary Airbnb or short-stay bookings has been identified.
Official sources: Official government source
04Are there different rules for hosted and unhosted Airbnbs?YES
HOSTED AIRBNB
Hosted STRA can operate for up to 365 days, subject to registration, fire-safety, planning and property requirements.
UNHOSTED AIRBNB
Non-hosted STRA day limits depend on the location. The ordinary limit is 180 days in Greater Sydney, Ballina and specified mapped areas, 60 days in most of Byron Shire, and up to 365 days outside prescribed areas or within an applicable mapped exception.
Bookings of 21 or more consecutive days to the same person or group are not counted toward the applicable non-hosted annual cap.
Any council-specific approval or operating requirement belongs under the council-level section.
Official sources: Code of Conduct for the Short-term Rental Accommodation Industry
05Is there a minimum stay or annual night cap?YES
NEW SOUTH WALES LEVEL
YES — LOCATION AND HOSTING STATUS DEPENDENT
- Hosted STRA: no annual day cap below 365 days
- Non-hosted STRA: 180-day cap in Greater Sydney, Ballina and specified mapped areas
- Most of Byron Shire: 60-day cap, subject to mapped 365-day precincts
- Other NSW areas: up to 365 days under the exempt pathway
- Bookings of 21 or more consecutive days are excluded from cap counting
- No universal NSW minimum number of nights per booking
BLACKTOWN CITY COUNCIL LEVEL
NO
No published Blacktown City Council rule has been identified that imposes a universal Airbnb-specific minimum stay or annual booking-night cap on ordinary private residential properties. Property-specific approvals can still impose conditions.
Any minimum rental periods applying to council-owned accommodation, staff housing, campsites or other authority-provided accommodation are service conditions. They are not private Airbnb restrictions.
Official sources: Official government source
06Do I need Blacktown City Council approval or a DA?NO
USUALLY NO DA — eligible residential STRA can use the NSW Housing SEPP exempt pathway if every standard, registration requirement and applicable day limit is met. DA/consent review is required outside that pathway. Fee is statutory/proposal-specific. Approval is never assured.
Blacktown City Council checks:
- Check — Hosted or unhosted treatment: The NSW Code of Conduct and STRA fire-safety standard apply to hosted and non-hosted residential STRA.
- No — Guest limit: No general statewide STRA guest cap.
- No — Parking plan or condition: No statewide STRA parking quota.
- Check — Noise management: Mandatory Code of Conduct applies.
- No — Property or management plan: No statewide management-plan requirement for every exempt STRA.
- No — Neighbour notification or contact: No statewide rule requiring direct neighbour contact details for every STRA.
- No — Waste plan: No statewide STRA waste-management plan.
- Check — Fire or evacuation requirements: Statewide STRA fire standard: evacuation plan/information, interconnected smoke alarms and required fire equipment; registration confirms compliance.
General noise, nuisance, parking, building, fire, strata, title, lease and insurance requirements still apply even when there is no blanket authority approval.
Official sources: Official government source
07Is there a Blacktown Airbnb development-application fee?NO
There is no standard Blacktown Airbnb development-application fee applying to every owner.
VARIABLE — where a DA is required, the statutory NSW fee is calculated under Schedule 4 of the EP&A Regulation and invoiced through the portal; exact fee depends on application type/cost.
If an individual property requires a development application, the fee applying to that specific application should be shown.
Official sources: Official government source
08Do I need a Blacktown registration or permit number?NO
Blacktown City Council does not have a published Airbnb-specific registration or permit-number scheme separate from any state or territory requirement and from a property-specific development approval.
Official sources: Code of Conduct for the Short-term Rental Accommodation Industry
09Does Blacktown charge an Airbnb registration or renewal fee?NO
No published Blacktown Airbnb-specific registration, listing, annual renewal, inspection or operating-permit fee has been identified. General authority fees unrelated to Airbnb must not be displayed as short-stay fees.
Official sources: Official government source
10Is there a Blacktown short-stay levy or tax?NO
No Blacktown City Council tax or levy specifically charged on Airbnb or short-stay bookings has been identified.
This is separate from the state or territory levy answer under number 03.

The price
Airbnb buyers agent fees, worked out for your purchase
Pick your price range or type your budget. You see the fee, the retainer and every way to pay, straight away. All prices include GST.
What do you expect to pay for the property?
Your fee: $18,600 0.98% of the price, GST included. If you buy for more or less, it’s worked out again on the price you actually pay.
No interest while we search, and the first 3 months are interest-free. After you buy, interest is charged on what’s still owing, nothing more. Pay it off at any time and the interest stops: you just pay what’s left of the fee.

The fee scale and retainer
Each rate applies to the part of the price inside its band, not the whole price. All amounts include GST.
Download the brochure (PDF). After you buy, full management is optional: $340 a month for the first 3 months, then a share of what the home earns. How do buyers agent fees compare? See buyers agent fees in Australia.
Pay monthly: see how the payment plans work3 to 36 months
Payment plans
Pay your Airbnb buyers agent fee monthly, not all at once
A buyers agent fee usually falls due at settlement, right when the deposit, stamp duty, furniture and setup costs land. We let you spread it. You start with a retainer from $1,000, which comes off your fee, then choose how to pay the rest.
- Pay at settlement
Nothing more until you buy. The balance is paid at settlement, with nothing added.
- 3 months, interest-free
Split the balance into three monthly payments, with no interest at any point.
- 12, 24 or 36 months
Smaller monthly payments. No interest while we search, and the first 3 months are interest-free. After you buy, 0.5% a month applies to what is still owing.
- Pay it off early, any time
Clear the balance whenever you like and the interest stops. You pay what is left of the fee, nothing more.
- Worked out on the price you pay
Payments start on your estimated price. When you buy, the fee is worked out again on the actual price, and anything paid over is refunded.
- More cash to set the home up
Spreading the fee keeps more of your cash for the deposit, furniture and setup, so the home can start taking bookings sooner.
Illustrative example: on a $1.5M Airbnb purchase our fee is $18,000, GST included. After a $1,500 retainer you could pay the $16,500 balance at settlement, as $5,500 a month for 3 months with no interest, or from $687.50 a month on the 24-month plan. Use the Airbnb buyers agent fee calculator to see every option for your price.

4.9 from 40 reviews★★★★★
I’ve bought two properties through Scott and both have been excellent buys. He found great value in strong locations, and the growth has been solid. Because of the results from those first two, I’m now in a position to buy another two investment properties and I’ll definitely be using Scott again.
Dean Erickson · Google review · 2025
★★★★★
Scott has been awesome throughout my journey. We bought our first investment property with Scott’s help and professional guidance. Would recommend him to any new buyers looking to kick start their investment portfolio.

Common questions
Buying an Airbnb in Blacktown: questions buyers ask
Can I run an Airbnb in Blacktown?
Yes, in most cases. Register the home on the NSW STRA Register, meet the fire-safety standard and follow the mandatory Code of Conduct. An unhosted Airbnb is limited to 180 days a year in Greater Sydney (bookings of 21 nights or more are not counted). Strata or community scheme by-laws and consent conditions can add limits, so we check them for each address.
Which Blacktown suburbs suit an Airbnb investor?
It depends on your budget and whether you want a house or a unit. On the last 12 months of sales with at least 20 sales, the highest long-term rental yields were 2-bedroom units in Blacktown ($464,000 median, 6.3% gross yield) and 1-bedroom units in Schofields ($457,750) and Rouse Hill ($527,000). For houses, Blacktown, Marsden Park, Quakers Hill and Riverstone had the most sales. We then test short-stay demand street by street.
What does an Airbnb earn in Blacktown?
It depends on the exact home, its size, its location and the 180-day cap for unhosted stays. Use the earnings estimate on this page for a property you are looking at, and we will check it against comparable short-stay homes nearby before you offer.
Does a buyer’s agent need a licence in NSW?
Yes. A buyer’s agent must be licensed in the state where they act. Wealth Through Property is licensed for buyer’s agent work in NSW and Queensland, so we act for you directly here. In other states we work through licensed local partners.
What does WTP charge as a buyer’s agent?
Our fee is $18,000 fixed for purchases up to $1.8M, then 0.6% on the part from $1.8M to $2M, 0.57% on the part from $2M to $5M, 0.525% on the part from $5M to $10M and 0.375% on the part over $10M. A retainer from $1,000, credited to the fee and refundable in full within 7 days, starts the search. Pay at settlement or in monthly instalments. All amounts include GST. We confirm the fee in writing before you sign anything.
What if the Airbnb plan does not work out?
You can lease it long-term. Median rents on homes leased over the last 12 months were $650 a week for a 3-bedroom house in Blacktown (house vacancy 1.3%) and $835 for a 4-bedroom house in Marsden Park (house vacancy 3.3%). We show you this fallback for every property before you buy.
Can I pay the buyer’s agent fee in instalments?
Yes. A retainer from $1,000, credited to the fee and refundable in full within 7 days, starts the search. The rest of the fee can be paid at settlement or monthly instead of all at once, and the plan is confirmed in writing before you sign.
I live outside Blacktown. Can you still buy an Airbnb there for me?
Yes. Every property is inspected before an offer, and you get the numbers, photos and checks by email or video call. You do not need to travel to Blacktown to buy.

A 3-bedroom house has a $1,031,000 median in Blacktown and $1,053,000 in Quakers Hill, and the 180-day cap for unhosted stays means a wrong purchase is expensive. An Airbnb buyer’s agent checks the rules, earnings and the long-term rent fallback before you offer.
