  • Changes in the Global Airbnb Offer During the COVID-19 Pandemic
    Universitat Oberta de Catalunya Revista d’economia, empresa i societat Dossier on collaborative economy (& II) New strategies and alternative aspects of the platform economy Coordinator: Lluís Alfons Garay Tamajón NEW INSIGHTS Changes in the global Airbnb offer during the COVID-19 pandemic Czesław Adamiak Nicolaus Copernicus University de Toruń, Poland ABSTRACT Airbnb is the most valuable tourism company in history and an epitome of the plat- form economy in tourism. Since 2020, together with the entire tourism sector, it has experienced the crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The paper presents the context for the current in- ternational research on Airbnb by describing the origin, current state, and possible developments of the platform offer during and after the pandemic. The data on the global Airbnb offer in 2018, 2019, and 2020 comes from web-scraping the platform website. It shows that the dynamic growth of accommodation supply stopped in the last year. The platform offer has continued to disperse geographically towards less saturated markets and rural areas during the pandemic period. Entire flats and apartments have been continuously growing in dominance in the structure of the listing, while the slower growth in the percentage of multihosts’ listings indicates a slowdown in the pro- cess of the professionalisation of the platform offer. KEYWORDS Airbnb; peer-to-peer accommodation; platform economy; sharing economy 1 Oikonomics (Núm. 15, maig de 2021) ISSN 2339-9546 Universitat Oberta de Catalunya http://oikonomics.uoc.edu Revista dels Estudis d’Economia i Empresa Czesław Adamiak Changes in the global Airbnb offer during the COVID-19 pandemic NOVES PERSPECTIVES Canvis en l’oferta d’Airbnb durant la pandèmia de la COVID-19 RESUMEN Airbnb es considera l’empresa de turisme de més valor en la història i és l’epítom de l’economia de plataforma en el turisme, un sector sumit en la crisi ocasionada per la pandèmia de la COVID-19.

  • The Sharing Economy: Disrupting the Business and Legal Landscape
    THE SHARING ECONOMY: DISRUPTING THE BUSINESS AND LEGAL LANDSCAPE Panel 402 NAPABA Annual Conference Saturday, November 5, 2016 9:15 a.m. 1. Program Description Tech companies are revolutionizing the economy by creating marketplaces that connect individuals who “share” their services with consumers who want those services. This “sharing economy” is changing the way Americans rent housing (Airbnb), commute (Lyft, Uber), and contract for personal services (Thumbtack, Taskrabbit). For every billion-dollar unicorn, there are hundreds more startups hoping to become the “next big thing,” and APAs play a prominent role in this tech boom. As sharing economy companies disrupt traditional businesses, however, they face increasing regulatory and litigation challenges. Should on-demand workers be classified as independent contractors or employees? Should older regulations (e.g., rental laws, taxi ordinances) be applied to new technologies? What consumer and privacy protections can users expect with individuals offering their own services? Join us for a lively panel discussion with in-house counsel and law firm attorneys from the tech sector. 2. Panelists Albert Giang Shareholder, Caldwell Leslie & Proctor, PC Albert Giang is a Shareholder at the litigation boutique Caldwell Leslie & Proctor. His practice focuses on technology companies and startups, from advising clients on cutting-edge regulatory issues to defending them in class actions and complex commercial disputes. He is the rare litigator with in-house counsel experience: he has served two secondments with the in-house legal department at Lyft, the groundbreaking peer-to-peer ridesharing company, where he advised on a broad range of regulatory, compliance, and litigation issues. Albert also specializes in appellate litigation, having represented clients in numerous cases in the United States Supreme Court, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, and California appellate courts.

  • Short-Term Rentals and Los Angeles' Lost Housing
    Short-Term Rentals and L.A.’s Lost Housing Roy Samaan | 24 August 2015 In March 2015, the Los Angeles Alliance for a New Economy (LAANE) released Airbnb, Rising Rent, and the Housing Crisis in Los Angeles. That report, based on data gathered in October 2014, found that Airbnb listings were dominated by commercial operations and were exacerbating the lack of affordable rental units in L.A.’s already tight housing market.1 The goal of this reassessment is to determine how the size and scope of the short-term rental (STR) industry has changed over the last nine months. This policy brief examines listing information from a broad range of STR operators alongside new Airbnb data. Combining these data sources allows for an examination of how Airbnb’s internal composition has changed over the last nine months and allows for the creation of a more refined snapshot of the Los Angeles STR industry.2 Estimated scope of short-term rental industry has more than doubled The short-term rental industry is more than twice Table 1: Total Unique Listings and Market Share for Los Angeles STR Operators as big as previously estimated, with a combined Share of L.A.’s STR Company Unique Listings 23,268 units spread across 19 different platforms.

  • STR Compliance Software Memo
    DATE: November 18, 2020 TO: W. John Moore, Mayor Yachats City Council FROM: Shannon Beaucaire, City Manager SUBJECT: Vacation Rental Monitoring Software At the November 5, 2020 meeting, the Council requested further discussion on vacation rental monitoring software at its November 18, 2020 meeting. This has been a continuing conversation over the last few years. Attached is the PowerPoint that the Mayor received from Granicus, that was shared with Council. Granicus purchased Host Compliance, the company that I brought to the Council during our continuing conversations. Notes from the Granicus meeting: In looking at the 5 cost options, Granicus stated that we probably don't need the Mobile-enabled registration/tax collection model, and did not include that $5,000 cost in what the Mayor reported at the council meeting. This module would primarily be used to move non-licensed VR owners to apply for a vacation rental license and pay their taxes through the module. Since we have a cap and would not be moving them towards obtaining a license, there doesn't seem to be a current need for that module. Granicus costs are based on the number of active (licensed and unlicensed) vacation rentals and are reset annually. Therefore, 2nd year costs may be lower than the first-year costs. Following are websites of short-term rental compliance software: Granicus https://granicus.com/solution/govservice/host-compliance/ Selected cities served, including Oregon cities, are in the Power Point. 1 Lodging Revs https://lodgingrevs.com/ Utilized by the City of Newport, OR https://www.newportoregon.gov/dept/adm/agreements/2693/agreement_2693.pd f Accela https://www.accela.com/solutions/short-term-rental/ Property Guard https://propertyguard.io/solutions/ Harmari https://www.harmari.com/harmaristr/ Articles regarding short-term rental compliance software (note: some of the products noted in the article have been merged into single companies.
