Air b b has 4 1 2 million listings a listings. Why is air bnb making this move now and why is it making this move at all. To help us understand this, we have c nets erin kurtz. So renting out your house, why today . Whats going on . Part of it is that airbnb are making a its really looking to broaden its reach. For instance, here in San Francisco, i understand that bookings went down about half, as soon as they put the new rules into effect . Exactly. So what does this mean to me . What this means is youre going to be able to get a lot more personalized experience on airbnb, if you want a rustic cabin in the woods, youll be able to find that a lot quicker now. If its going to be inspected and certified is it going to corporation me more . No, the verification process is free if you want to rent out your home. If you are looking to rent a home, it should stay the same price. What airbnb explained today is that this plus is not every single listing on the site, its a select few. So are they looking for a new customer . Are they looking for the high end dont they have rihave h people to rent houses from them . They have these plus, and these super high end luxury places that go for 10,000 a a night. So its really looking to bring in those customers that are willing to spend a lot of money. It appeared to me that theyre trying to get into the event space. Like if i want to throw a party, they want me to throw it at oh, youre shaking your head. It wasnt something that they hit on very hard, but they definitely seem to be heading that direction, because you can look for spaces where you can have a wedding, where you can have a dinner party, so theyre really making it personalized. Big business, is certainly up in sonoma and napa counties. Definitely, and airbnb will get a cut of all of rentals. Is this unfair competition to hotels . Hotels would probably say so. Theyre feeling the heat from airbnb, but theres still a place for hotels and a lot of people use them. Youre right. Thank you, michael. If you have one of those popular instant pots.
