These (Surprising) Markets Had Biggest Listings Growth
Skift Take
Airbnb listings skyrocket in cities – even where they are banned – and operators in Victoria, Canada, creatively evade regulations to profit in during an affordability crisis.
While reporting on the short-term rental saturation story last week, I got into some data-digging to find out which markets saw the largest increase in available listings. I was specifically interested in available bookable listings, rather than listings or occupancy, because the former is a factor in market saturation, which impacts home prices.
But the data from Rabbu, a short-term rental data provider, had me gawking at my screen.
