Show 315, The Best Places for Short-Term Rentals

Description

We are continuing today with our year- end series on “Best Places.” Today we discuss the best places to own a short-term rental. AirBnB is the dominant player in the short term rental provider, but we should also mention VRBO, Vacation Rentals By Owner, and a variety of other AirBnb Competitors. In fact I’m going to share a list of them with you and try to list the distinctive differences, if any. But make sure you pay attention to the news. AirBnB is getting hammered in some cities, who in spite of their rhetoric seem to have found another revenue stream for themselves.
