Interview on the short-term rental market and its connection to rental prices.
In an interview with in.gr, our researcher Kostas Gourzis referred to the results of a recent study conducted as part of the project (which you can find here https://www.researchgate.net/publication/395027887_The_impact_of_short-term_rental_markets_on_the_neighborhoods_of_Athens_and_Thessaloniki), on how long-term rental markets and short-term rental markets – Airbnb – are spatially related. The most basic findings indicate that short-term rentals are linked to rising rent prices. Specifically, for every 100 new listings of homes on short-term rental platforms in an area or neighbourhood, the rent price increases by 2%.
