Short Term Rental Data from Transparent now available in CARTO
Similar to other tourism-driven industries the short-term rental market has struggled during the COVID-19 pandemic. March and April when the virus first hit saw a wave of cancellations that left some property owners fearing their ability to continue operating. Many switched their units to long-term rentals as a result.
In May Airbnb announced plans to cut about 1 900 staff raise $2 billion through the debt sales and undertake a complete reassessment of operations. Airbnb is expected to raise $3 billion during its IPO next month (valuing it at $30 billion) and as the short-term rental market recovers having access to high quality data will be crucial in order to determine where to focus these efforts and resources.
