The use of residential property for short-term use has exploded in cities across the country and throughout the world in recent years with the assistance of online rental platforms such as Airbnb and VRBO. This relatively new, but rapidly growing, phenomenon has blurred the lines between traditional residential uses of property and a more transient commercial lodging use. The resulting effect has had wide-ranging consequences affecting property valuation, zoning, and affordable housing stock.

In this session, learn about how local governments are addressing the struggles to regulate this new and growing property use, raising questions about the practicality, legality, and even constitutionality of new laws seeking to restrict or outright ban this practice.
