Real Estate: COVID-19 Impact on Short-Term Rentals

Airbnb has set up a fund to help hosts dealing with coronavirus cancellations. Travelers ditched plans for vacations, work trips, and family get-togethers when the virus spread. And then, Airbnb promised full refunds. Airbnb's "Host Relief Fund" will help cover some of the lost revenue, but many hosts are coming up short.    We don't know yet how the coronavirus will impact the overall housing market, but for Airbnb hosts, the impact was felt almost immediately. Big events that draw huge numbers of people to destination hot spots were cancelled, and along with them, Airbnb reservations.   www.NewsForInvestors.com
