Unsurprisingly, landlords are rushing to get their properties approved before the law that halts registration for more short-term apartments goes into effect. We should see many more Airbnbs in our neighborhoods soon, enjoy.
From Público (roughly translated): “From Feb. 17 (shortly after the press conference [that disclosed the hald) until last Friday, March 10, a further 1677 requests have been filed with the national local accommodation register (RNAL), of which 971 are for apartments. This value is 83% higher than the same number of immediately preceding days and 133% and 98% higher than the same period in 2019 (pre-pandemic) and 2022, respectively.”
