Effects and Regulatory Frameworks for Short-Term Rentals
Short-term rentals, also known eponymously as AirBnBs, are housing units which are rented for short durations, typically less than 30 days. They are used primarily by vacationers as an alternative to traditional hotels. Advocates cite their utility in helping homeowners make extra income while giving travelers additional accommodation choices as holistic societal benefits. Detractors point to their negative effects on local housing markets and neighborhoods as reasons to restrict or ban their use. The true impacts, however, are much more nuanced. This session explores those effects and examines potential regulatory frameworks.
