If it was for health care or first responders that needed accommodation it would be one thing but people just bored wanting a change of scenery isn't really "essential" of course my decision was easier because the whole month cancelled anyway.  

But, I believe urban areas, like Minneapolis/Saint Paul where I am, will see a large temporary loss of STR inventory, and most of that loss will be from the bottom of the barrel, because they aren't profitable enough to justify the risk, but the highest performing STRs will of course stick around, because they're doubling or tripling income from LTR.I also own a duplex in Rochester, MN a few blocks from Mayo Clinic, that I'll be putting half of onto airbnb when it's done (I wish it was ready so I could help some healthcare folks out).I think it's like most industries though, the most robust and efficient businesses will withstand this crisis, while the weaker, unfortunately, might not.Just to predict, I think across the airbnb platform we'll see a temporary (maybe up to a year after the crisis comes to an end) drop of inventory around 10-15%, but I think bookings will drop by less than that amount (after the quarantines stop).

I was able to lease out two properties this past week (with leases starting this weekend) to excellent tenants with stable jobs (food distribution worker/ truck driver, healthcare worker/industrial contractor). 

A substantial part of our economy is military/healthcare which is obviously not slowing down right now. 

I work in clinical healthcare and I’ve been unhappy so I’m looking for change.

@Jeff Tyndall As a healthcare professional your tenants concerns are legitimate.

We decided to offer a 30% discount to visiting healthcare professionals during the pandemic.

One of my clients  and another associate  have donated their units to health care professionals during the crisis.they specialize is short term housing for travelling nurses etc. 

My wife is a health care provider and business has been great from day one.

The reason why I don't want to buy a duplex or triplex in my area (Ann Arbor MI) is because all multi-family homes are very expensiveThank You!
