Typical Corpus Christi listings earned about $22,013 last year from 2,014 active rentals, AirROI trailing twelve months from August 2025 through July 2026. The average night was $248. Occupancy was 34.1 percent. Revenue per available night was $84. Year over year is plus 2.5 percent. Active supply moved plus 9.8 percent.
The three strongest city months are June, July, and August. June is the busiest. January is the slowest. Occupancy is weakest in April. Most guests arrive from San Antonio, then Austin.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much did typical Corpus Christi listings earn last year?
Typical Corpus Christi listings earned about $22,013 last year from 2,014 active rentals, per AirROI's trailing twelve months through July 2026. The average night was $248, with occupancy at 34.1 percent and revenue per available night around $84. Revenue moved up about 2.5 percent year over year, while active supply grew about 9.8 percent. Keep this city figure separate from Port Aransas and Rockport.
When is Corpus Christi's strongest month?
June is the busiest revenue month, with July and August rounding out the three strongest months. January is the slowest month, and occupancy runs weakest in April.
Do I need a Corpus Christi STR permit in 2026, and what does it cost?
Contact Corpus Christi Development Services at 361-826-3240 (email STRregistration@CorpusChristiTX.gov; 2406 Leopard Street; mailing address P.O. Box 9277) to confirm current requirements. Type 1 (owner/operator occupied) stays are allowed citywide except in single-family zoning inside the Padre/Mustang Island Area Development Plan. Type 2 (non-owner/operator occupied) stays are limited to 15 percent of the block face, on a first-come-first-served basis, and are not permitted in single-family zoning inside the Padre/Mustang Island ADP. The city's own FAQ page still shows outdated $50 and $250 fee figures from 2022-2023, so confirm the current 2026 fee directly with the city rather than relying on the stale posted number. Permits are valid for the calendar year and must be renewed every January, and hotel occupancy tax applies.
Is a 30-night minimum-stay rule the same thing as occupancy?
No. About 695 listings — 34.5 percent of Corpus Christi's 2,014 active rentals — use a 30-night minimum-stay requirement, which is a booking policy, not a measure of how full a calendar runs. The typical stay length here is still 4.7 nights, with roughly 36 days of booking lead time.
Should I hire a property manager in Corpus Christi?
Corpus Christi's professionally managed share sits at about 40.3 percent, with Padre Escapes holding 267 listings in this data set — a notably higher managed share than many comparable markets. Port Aransas and Rockport are separate cities with their own management landscapes and permit rules, so don't assume a Corpus Christi strategy transfers directly.
Who books a Corpus Christi stay?
Most guests arrive from San Antonio, followed by Austin. The typical stay runs 4.7 nights, booked about 36 days ahead. Urban guests tend to be drawn to North Beach and downtown specifically, a different demand driver than a Port Aransas or Rockport island stay.
Can Port Aransas' numbers be used as Corpus Christi's year?
No. Corpus Christi's average night was $248 across 2,014 listings, while Port Aransas' separate data set shows about $35,792 across 2,501 listings. These are different markets with very different demand patterns — cite Corpus Christi's $22,013 figure on its own line rather than substituting Port Aransas' much higher number.
What should a buyer or lender packet cite for Corpus Christi?
Cite the $22,013 revenue figure across 2,014 listings, the 9.8 percent supply growth and 2.5 percent year-over-year revenue gain, and the Type 1/Type 2 permit distinction confirmed with Development Services at 361-826-3240. Keep Port Aransas and Rockport figures out of a Corpus Christi-specific packet.

Corpus Christi listings often get priced off a blended Coastal Bend average that folds in Port Aransas' much higher island-tourism numbers — a separate, more expensive market.
