962. Airbnb For Business Travel & The Risks?

Quite an article below, yes?

https://www.shrm.org/ResourcesAndTools/legal-and-compliance/employment-law/Pages/Airbnb-for-Business-Travel.aspx

Your take on these two quotes, below?

"Employers need to consider any risks associated with using
home-sharing services."


"Travelers need to take equal care for their safety in hotels and
Airbnb properties," Fromholz said. But employees may face additional
risks when booking through Airbnb because the properties are not
regulated in the same way as hotels, she noted. "Unlike hotels, for
example, Airbnbs may not have staff or security who can help a
traveler who might be in distress, and may not have security
precautions equivalent to a hotel's."

934. Half of SF Airbnb Listings Get Nixed Overnight

Wow---aware of this news in San Francisco? Airbnb is having a tough time, getting and keeping inventory.  Read the full story here.

https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/half-sf-airbnb-listings-get-nixed-overnight-marking-bornstein-esq-/

Excerpt ... "Airbnb may have won many people’s choice awards, but it hasn’t gotten many points with its hometown. Now, the city seems to have tamed the beast and emerged as the undisputed enforcer of the modern-day iteration of the temporary flop. San Francisco’s newly fanged Office of Short-Term Rentals no longer has to plea with billion-dollar platforms to remove hosts that flout the rules – they merely tell them to remove the bad actors.

In a nanosecond, thousands of straggling, unregistered Airbnb hosts got their listings deactivated, nixing nearly half of Airbnb’s listings overnight. That’s because when the clock struck midnight on Wednesday January 17, a new law kicked in requiring hosts to register their property went into effect."

Been watching this kind of Airbnb news and trends---around the world! 

Come join corporate housing leaders from around the world on Tuesday [week #254] to learn more,
