Key insights

  • While launching in unregulated areas might seem appealing, it carries risk because future regulations could negatively impact revenue and occupancy without host control.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Launching in cities where short-term rentals are banned or have reached their maximum permit limit is risky, as it's only a matter of time before operations are stopped or fined.
