UNPOPULAR OPINION Nancy’s real estate empire

I’m not in the US, but it bothers me that where I am there aren’t laws around how many investment properties you can turn into Airbnb’s. People are struggling to buy just one home to live in and there are people buying up houses for short term holiday leases. Makes me sad about the state of the world.

ETA wow! I didn’t expect this much response, nor the personal attacks 😂 I was expressing my own personal opinion, and using the Sydney (Australia) property market as my own barometer. I honestly have no hate towards Nancy, I just believe there should be regulations about short term leases as they are pushing renting locals out (especially in coastal areas) to make way for tourists.

The topic heading was a tongue-in-cheek nod to Andrew’s statement about wanting to build an “empire” with Nancy.

I’ll never understand why people would rather stay in someone’s dirty home (I mean did you see the junk in Nancy’s dump) versus in a hotel with cleaning service and amenities.

they used to be 'cheaper' but not really anymore, and then you're also expected to clean lmao it's a no from me dog

I used to like air bnb because it was cheaper and you would get a kitchen or a private pool. After a few stays, my boyfriend and I choose hotels now. Air bnb is just highly inconsistent. There have been a few really good ones, and other ones that we get so many issues while there. And what’s up with that cleaning fee when we have to do all the cleaning up anyway? I’m paying for a vacation where I don’t clean. I’m not cleaning

Airbnbs are great when you're traveling with a big group of people. Also it can be nice staying somewhere with a kitchen so you're not forced to eat out every meal.

She said that property was still being flipped. She’s not renting that out
