AirBnb charges fees of 14% to guests. Those fees are added to the rent.
That is indeed "AirBnb's fault" that they have their own 14% fees on your rent if you're planning to stay there long term.
- jazzyjackson 5y agoMy conjecture wasn't that AirBnB is cheaper, but that the price of housing is what the market will bear. Maybe the fact that a landlord that would usually have to find a new tenant though word of mouth or classified ads can now advertise to a much wider audience has the result of making the landlord more money and making housing more expensive.
