"$1,000,000 / 03ft2 - Airbnb is done 1-28-22 (Maui)
You want a place to live that you can afford!
Don't even look now....
February a ton of rentals will be back on the market for the people who live, and work in Maui!
Unfortunately they will all be furnished and overpriced, because they were illegal airbnb rentals making $20,000.00 a month. Wait another month and watch prices drop......
Another month and homes will be for sales....
You won't be able to afford to buy one you pesant, but hey maybe rent will drop!
All I'm saying is.
If we don't overpay, rent will drop, because the $200.00 a night tourist fee cannot be accepted anymore by airbnb!!!
If you can hold your breath any longer, do so now, and thank me later.....
Good luck!
Hope to hell you don't have a baby, dog and more than one vehicle!!! "
An understandable rant about housing prices. But, what does the $200 a night tourist fee not accepted by AirBnb have to do with anything, or even mean? Possibly just wishful thinking...
Mahalo for any clarification
One part fantasy, one part financial illiteracy, one part conspiracy theory, one part proto-communism, this wall of word salad is indecipherable and unhinged so I'm not sure I can help.
I think this has to do with the new policy going into effect for Airbnb where they are actually going to require rentals to have a proper TAT numbers for listings. I suspect the poster feels that this change will result in a lot of Airbnb properties to no longer be able to be listed and the owners will suffer a loss financially and in turn list the properties for sale. I'm guessing they feel the rush of properties becoming available will shift the market and cause the current bubble to pop, and suddenly locals will be able to snag some properties.
I think some of this may be true and some properties will become available, but nothing that will cause a significant change anywhere on island.
