Market guide
Baltimore revenue management market guide
Baltimore and Annapolis sit forty minutes apart but serve very different guests. Baltimore draws sports fans for the Orioles at Camden Yards and the Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium, convention delegates at the Baltimore Convention Center, and patients and families visiting Johns Hopkins. Annapolis is a sailing town and the home of the US Naval Academy, so its peaks come from Commissioning Week in late May, Plebe Summer induction, parents' weekends and the October sailboat and powerboat shows. The Preakness Stakes adds a spring spike for the region, though it is running at Laurel Park while Pimlico is rebuilt. We price each city on its own calendar, protect Academy and boat show dates early and hold winter floors.

- Fells Point and Canton

Rules and taxes to price around in Baltimore
Baltimore City requires short-term rental hosts to obtain a licence, and eligibility is tied to the host's residence. Annapolis requires an operating licence for short-term rentals and restricts non-owner-occupied rentals in some residential zones. Hotel occupancy taxes apply in both cities and in Anne Arundel County. Check the current rules for your address, as both cities enforce actively.

FAQ
Questions from Baltimore hosts and hoteliers
When are Annapolis rates highest?
During Naval Academy Commissioning Week in late May and the sailboat and powerboat shows in October, followed by Plebe Summer induction and parents' weekends. Sailing season weekends are strong too. We load these dates a year ahead with minimum stays, since Academy families and boat show visitors book early.
Do I need a licence for a Baltimore short-term rental?
Yes. Baltimore City requires a short-term rental licence, with eligibility tied to the host's residence. Annapolis requires an operating licence and restricts non-owner-occupied rentals in some residential zones. Hotel occupancy taxes apply in both, so check the current requirements for your address.
Where is the Preakness held?
The Preakness Stakes is traditionally run at Pimlico in Baltimore, but it has moved to Laurel Park while Pimlico is rebuilt. Its location affects which neighbourhoods see the strongest demand. We check the venue each year and adjust pricing for nearby listings accordingly.
Does Revenuenaire work with hotels and Airbnb hosts in Baltimore?
Yes, remotely and scheduled in Eastern Time (UTC-5): hotels, resorts, serviced apartments, Airbnb hosts and property managers, from a single listing to portfolios of 1,500+ properties, with 100+ properties optimized in and around Baltimore.
How do I book, and what does it cost?
Pricing strategy packages are priced by listing count (from 125 for up to 2 listings), managed revenue management for hotels is quoted per property, and Revenuenaire Dynamic Pricing is $18 per listing per month.
