from The Check-In · host Leo Walton and Sarah Nan Dupre

What’s the real difference between a multi-billion dollar "SPAC" failure like Vacasa and a scaling success like Hostaway? VC partner and industry expert Eugenia Dunaeva joins Sarah and Leo to pull back the curtain on short-term rental investments. We dive into "sticky" tech stacks, the shift from overvaluation to realism, and what operators need to show investors in 2026 to get funded.
