How AirBnb will Crash the Housing Market

Here's how Airbnb could crash the U.S. housing market.

There are over 1 million properties listed on Airbnb here in the United States. In recent years, there's been a huge trend of small investors buying single-family houses to then list on short-term rental sites like Airbnb. Owners of these properties have made a ton of money over the past two years as demand for travel has been strong.

Oh, but things are changing. Consumers are getting hit with inflation, and consumers have less savings to spend on luxuries like travel. Many owners of these properties use a special type of loan to make this investment: a vacation property loan. These loans only require as little as five percent down compared to the normal investment property loan of 25 percent down.

If bookings slow down from historical highs, these small-time investors could quickly drain their reserves. Assuming even one-third of the million Airbnb properties have to be sold, that will more than double the supply of housing units on the market from Spring of 2022 levels.

This much inventory flooding the market, combined with the highest mortgage interest rate in decades, will put downward pressure on the housing market. Check out the full video on my channel for more. It's linked in the comments and video description here.
