As an apartment owner in Manhattan, I find one part of the study surprising. Most Co-ops and Condos (two types of apartment financial structuring that is common in NYC), explicitly ban AirBnB rental. The apartment I own, in a fancy part of the city (Upper East Side), penalises the owner $350 for first infraction, and the fines escalate for each subsequent infraction. Most Co-ops even prohibit non-owners living in the building (they cannot rent it out). I wonder who these people are, that are able to buy AirBnB'able apartments. I just searched Streeteasy.com, a popular NYC real estate listing site for Airbnb and I was not able find any listings (Query: https://streeteasy.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&search=airbnb&commit= https://streeteasy.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&search=airbnb&c...). I also looked at the data-source in the Citylab article (Airdna.com) and I see that I would earn 10% more by Airbnb'ing my apartment than finding a tenant. For me this 10% is not worth optimising for, considering the tenants go through a credit evaluation process, I don't risk any vacancy and I do not have to change the sheets every other week.
