How Airbnb Ruined the Housing Market

Описание: The housing market feels broken. Rents keep climbing, starter homes disappear, and every time you check listings they’re more expensive than last month. In this video, we break down how we got here in simple steps.

We look at how short-term rentals like Airbnb changed the way owners think about homes, why investors can outbid normal people, and how this turns whole cities into places built for visitors instead of locals. This isn’t just about one app. It’s about how homes turned into money machines, and what that does to anyone who just wants a stable place to live.

In this video, Pigeon walks through:

How turning homes into short-term rentals cuts the number of places for long-term renters
Why landlords often earn more from tourists than from yearly tenants
How investors buying multiple properties push prices up for everyone else
Real examples from cities where this already happened
What it means for renters, first-time buyers, and people pushed out of their own neighborhoods

If you feel like you did everything right and housing still moved out of reach, this video will help the whole picture click.
