FROM AirBnB website:
“Experts agree the chronic, decades-long underproduction of new housing supply is driving today’s housing affordability challenges. We want to play a role in finding sensible, long-term solutions to help increase the housing supply and work with cities to balance the benefits of home sharing with communities’ needs.”
“AirBnB supported 2022 legislation in COLORADO https://www.cpr.org/2022/11/14/colorado-votes-to-dedicate-300-million-annually-to-housing”
- “San Francisco, the birthplace of Airbnb, was one of the early adopters of STR regulations. As far back as 2014, San Francisco ruled that only permanent residents, who have registered with the city, are allowed to be short-term hosts. To be a permanent resident, one must reside in a unit for at least 275 nights per year. The ability to share space when a host is present is unlimited, but host-absent stays are limited to 90 days per year.”

“In Virginia, the General Assembly is working on a bill containing language that would make it so localities couldn’t require certain permits for short-term rentals involving a homeowner’s primary residence. At the same time, the legislation would limit city registration fees to a maximum of $150, and fines to $300.”

"2018-2023 Aggregate DATA: analyses show that rental shares of supply and demand have accelerated. Small city/rural and suburban locations drove this growth, as they provided consumers with physical space during the pandemic. Larger homes also contributed to growth, with 3-bedroom rental properties accounting for a larger share of growth than 1-bedrooms."
