Airbnb launches platform allowing renters to host apartments

[Evan DeZaldo]

Hey there, 

I figured this was worth sharing since a lot of us here have been learning more about STRs and the STR 'arbitrage' space. Check our Airbnb's new updates that will allow for people to actually partner with other landlords: https://www.cnbc.com/2022/11/3...

Key Points:
- The company (Airbnb) said a new page on its site will list so-called Airbnb-friendly buildings that let tenants host their apartments just as homeowners do.

- Typically, rental buildings prohibit tenants from subletting for short stays.

- To start, Airbnb is showcasing 175 apartment buildings in more than 25 major markets.

I saw that yesterday. It's going to increase the number of arbitrage units, which I think decreases the quality of the product. I am disliking the AirBnB platform more and more.
