My bet is that the anti-airbnb movement is facilitated/funded by the hotel lobby. The hotels stand to benefit the most.

That sucks for the Airbnb owners, but I think I feel worse for the residents.

It is only applicable to Apartment Zoned Areas..

Where are those areas? Right on the beach?

here's a list of the complexes on the apartment zone list

BYUFBDAD

5:09pm

That is fairly small and limited in my opinion.. so many Airbnbs available still

xarope8

5:14pm

~100 complexes equals about 7000 short term rentals of about 12,000 total.

BYUFBDAD

5:18pm

The fewer available the more those prices are going to be jacked up

kotacoug

5:21pm

Those are some massive complexes. Not sure how locals will afford any of those anyway.

If you extrapolate their current playoff win streak out then my math says they’d go 16-0.
