The measure was filled with tourists: France bans short term rentals, Spain removes 65 000 apartments from Airbnb
There are some areas of Athens where short-term rentals are prohibited.
It’s time to look for accommodation for your summer holiday. Photos of the beautiful apartment are available on Airbnb and Booking.com. Both broker apartments for ordinary people and investors.
Free days seem to be available and the price fits into your holiday budget. A few clicks and your booking is made.
After half an hour, the owner announces that he will not rent the apartment.
The reason will soon become clear. In France, tourists’ favorite destinations in Paris and Biarritz have taken a strict line for short rental.
French magazine Le Monde estimates that Airbnb’s best days have been seen. There is a shortage of apartments and the terms of short rental are tightened.
The beach city in Biarritz must last for at least one month. In the most popular French destinations, the apartment can be rented up to 90 days a year.
When the days are full, there will be a stop for rent. If the law is not complied with, the mayor of the city may slide a plush $ 15,000 fine.
Tough action in Spain
Spain also announced hard action on Monday. According to Reuters, the government removes 65,000 apartments from AirbnB.
The reason is confusion about the owner: whether it is an individual or a company.
Spain calls for registration from homeowners and many have not done it. If the information is not found in the register, the apartment will disappear from the list of renters.
The residents rebelled because housing rents have risen so hard that the citizens of their own country can no longer afford to pay them. Decision -makers must meet the demands of citizens.
This has happened not only on Barcelona but also on the Sunshine Coast – especially in Malaga.
Restrictions also for Athens and Dubrovnik
Yle announced last week about places that are no longer worth traveling. Of the cities that ended up on the list, Barcelona, \u200b\u200bAmsterdam and Berlin were among the first to restrict short rent.
Last year, the people went to the streets in Barcelona.
Following the favorite destinations of Finns, Greece, Italy and Croatia are followed.
Last year, a law came into force in Italy, which requires that the owner of the home and the tenant must meet face to face. The keys can no longer be left outside the apartment in a locked box.
The law wants to prevent the nesting of criminals and \”vague material\” in houses.
And more regulations: In over a thousand historical sites, the passenger has to rent an apartment for at least two nights. The list includes Milan, Naples, Venice, Bologna, Torino and Genoa.
In Athens, short rental is completely banned, for example, in an anarchist -known exarchy.
The rage also rises in Croatia.
Dubrovnik is so crowded that new permits for Airbnb destinations no longer have a hell. Dubrovnik’s number of tourists exploded as fans of the popular TV series Game of Thrones wandered there.
The series has been filmed in the old town of Dubrovnik.
The outdoor report sheds light on the situation on the Canary Islands, where residents were tired of tourists. The money flows into the pockets of foreign property owners:
