Abstract
This paper examines the effects Airbnb has on housing prices. Airbnb empowers homeowners by offering them the opportunity to rent out their properties for short durations, playing a significant role in the home-sharing economy. The introduction of short-term rentals (STRs) has had a notable impact on the housing market, although the extent of this influence remains somewhat unknown. There is evidence to suggest that STRs contribute to rising housing prices, emphasizing affordability challenges for buyers and renters alike.
