There are in-home daycares near me that are weekend AirBnBs 🤢🤢🤢

When I own a town it will be illegal to own a house you don’t live in. If an apartment building you will still have to live in one unit, rent out the rest.

Hate AIRBNB. I know that sounds harsh but it's destroyed communities all over the world. One of the worst excesses of rampant capitalism.

Getting rid of Airbnb might help ease the housing shortage

Feel free to be a pig. We buried class in America a long time ago.

When you need a place to stay crappier than a hotel room, Airbnb.

REITs should be illegal.

Airbnb is a plague.

💯! I stopped AirBnb’ing when co-founder Joe Gebbia clearly was MAGA. Then he joined DOGE and was appointed Trump's first U.S. Chief Design Officer.

actually owned by real people.

This is why families can’t afford to buy homes anymore.

I co-run an Airbnb to support my father in his retirement (his old house; but due to poor health, lives with my sister.) Big draw for our home is that we allow pets, and we are in the heart of the Lakes Region (NH). Hotels here are insanely priced. Affordability is a big attraction.

"Uber is much safer than a random cab." Yeah, they had to create an option for women to specify a female driver because MALE DRIVERS WERE ASSAULTING PASSENGERS. Hotels have an option where you can have side by side rooms with a door in between. Not sharing but can still hang out.

What if you’re traveling with a big group? What if you have 4 kids and don’t want to split them up in hotel rooms? What if you prefer cool amenities like a private hot tub or a movie room? What if you prefer cooking to eating out? Lots of reasons to prefer an Airbnb.

EXACTLY

They fire the help then demand service, no doubt

Exactly. Because you know who is cleaning up the Airbnbs under this? People who desperately need a job, or a second or third job. It's a lot cheaper and easier to exploit them than having to police the (over)paying guests who don't clean up after themselves and will fight over the surcharges.

Fuck AirBnB - owner is a Trumper / former DOGE.

Now stop making us haul the garbage several miles away.

If I was a private homeowner using Air BnB I wouldn't want to come home to someone else's mess. This idea is purely for corporate management so they can exploit cheap labor.

Point!

My small city has been trying to reclassify Airbnbs as motels, which blocks them from existing in residential areas, and they are being fought legally. These new rules should assist them in this fight since the platform seems to be admitting that they are, indeed, motels.

Private equity ruins *everything*. Housing markets, Birkenstocks, former mom & pop businesses, etc.

I used to clean for one of these. Beds were stripped and dishes washed. I appreciated that.

The American dream didn't die. It got listed on Airbnb at $180 a night with a $95 cleaning fee.

Don’t use airb&b It keeps property off the market denying homes to families.

Big whoop about sink and bed --cause I never minded doing my few dishes so I'd MUCH rather ban corporations as you suggest. That would mean something.

It’s now more expensive than hotels, defeats the whole purpose of the system

they never did need to. if an air bnb didn't mention that upfront before the rental was locked in it would have been an illegal hidden fee. the renter could have sent an invoice to the air bnb for their cleaning services and they would have been forced to pay if taken to small claims court

Private equity needs to be corralled and banned from buying homes.

This is very helpful information. Thank you, They.

🤔 Airbnb has generated a total revenue of $12.24 billion in the full fiscal year of 2025. 2025: $626 million paid in taxes, 5.11%

Fuck Airbnb and their hidden cameras. I stopped staying in those a while back. Never again.

OMG yes.

There needs to be a special property tax bracket for homes that are not owner occupied. That would fix this fast.

Yes

My realtor told me they cant restrict who buys your home. However YOU can.. sell it yourself!!

Let's go back to real cabs and proper hotels.

NBD. They'll just raise their rates to include a "cleaning fee." 🙄

Happened recently in GA. Haven't looked 2 deep. Hearsay by a commercial realtor & owner.

🎯🎯

And the upfront and non refundable cleaning fee has doubled…

I had no idea. Washing dishes, stripping beds? huh... talk about getting away from it all

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Agreed

Air BnB used to be a way for private homeowners to make a bit of money on the side when they were away from home for an extended period of time.

AirheadBNBs displaced countless food service workers, musicians, blue-collar families. Yuppie capitalistic greedy people suck. Quit using housing like a widget, assholes. Yuppie era bullshit Signed, damn hippie

I wonder (hope?) if this will make AirBnB’s just slightly less profitable enough for corporations to stop doing this.

Can I still ash in a coffee cup?

But also this is good.

This was the first layer of activity that started to ruin the housing market!…. Eating up all the rentals!!! 😬
