Trump's childhood home

Fans idolize celebrities to a point that they want to live with them 24/7. While this might not be possible, the closest thing is to live where they live via Airbnb, albeit on a rent basis. Who are the celebrities on Airbnb and how much do they actually make?

Although celebrities already earn millions, some of them still put up their properties for rent. Why? Simply because it is a lucrative idea. According to Fortune, an Airbnb host could earn as much as $5,474 on average per year. Meanwhile, in other premium areas such as Midtown Manhattan, hosts could earn up to $8,286. The earnings vary on the location, demand and type of property on Airbnb.

Just how much can famous, recognizable names help when it comes to Airbnb rentals? Take a look at this New York property, which was President Donald Trump’s childhood home. As reported by The Washington Post, the property in Queens is a Tudor-style home and is available for $725 per night. A buyer purchased the property for $2.14 million and thought of turning it into a museum but considered against it. The home features five bedrooms.
