If you have subscribed to Data Rabbu's services, how can you describe your experience so far? There are way too many negative reviews featured on Yelp, but it's always best to hear from other's points of views.

Thanks!

Hey fellow pocketeers! There are plenty of negative reviews from Rabbu which gives me the option to look for other platforms available on the market. But I would like to know more about others' personal experiences using Data Rabbu as I'm keen to write about it, feel free to share!

Quote from @Tiffany Cohen:

I've been wanting to buy in London but as an American the financial requirements are astronomical between lending, different taxes for being a foreigner and owning multiple properties, the stamp duty etc. I want to own a property I can stay at while in town then Airbnb or mid term let it the rest of the year. Only problem are the crazy amount of funds needed!

I see! Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Tiffany. It must be overwhelming to see a lot of financial requirements for foreigners like us who are looking to invest in a different city. Are you currently handling an Airbnb property in a foreign city, particularly in EU?

The map I attached is colored according to their respective median occupancy rates using our short-term rental analytics tool.

That map shows all of North America as dark red. That can't be right...?

Hey Bruce! Red color for NA signifies the highest occupancy rate :)

In my recently published article about how to find Airbnb occupancy rates, Europe has the highest occupancy rate in comparison to all continents worldwide. If more foreign investors would be interested to invest in properties, what are the major requirements and where is the easiest country to do so?

Would love to hear all your feedback & suggestions. Thanks, fellow pocketeers!

I recently wrote an article about how to find Airbnb occupancy rates and discovered that the 2nd highest occupancy rate worldwide next to Europe is in North America, with Canada as the top-ranking country (63% occupancy rate). Where do you think is the best place to invest in Canada? Let me know your thoughts, thanks!

Quote from @Mark Waite:

For starters, the article's headline reads: "Honolulu will require 90-day minimum stays for Airbnbs and short-term rentals outside resort areas in October." Honolulu is one of four counties in Hawaii, so the comment about it being applicable to Hawaii was incorrect and very off-base.

Each county regulates short term rentals differently. Honolulu has been very aggressive in their efforts to limit the available inventory of short term rentals. In my opinion, even without this new law, it is not a great market because the numbers don't pencil out. There are way too many hotels on the island.

Maui, Kauai and Hawaii Island each have their own regulations. Maui's is all about how the property is zoned and what the HOA by-laws allow. If both are aligned, then you can close today and start doing overnight rentals tomorrow. The other two islands have designated visitor destination areas where STR's can operate so long as they have a valid permit.

Thanks for clarifying this, Mark!
