Short-Term Rental Regulatory Risk Model.

Models the financial evaporation of property portfolios when cities pass "AirBnb Bans" forcing high-yield Short-Term Rentals instantly into low-yield Long-Term annual leases.

## The 'Hotel Lobby' Extinction Threat

Over-leveraged investors built massive empires buying residential homes and running them as localized hotels via AirBnb. This generates wildly outsized yields compared to renting out the house to a family for 12 months. This arbitrage is heavily reliant on the City Council not intervening.

### FAQ

**Q: What happens when the City bans AirBnbs?**
A: Absolute destruction of the business model. If you bought 15 properties relying on $5,000/mo AirBnb yields to cover extreme $35,000/mo mortgages, switching to a legally capped $2,400/mo long-term lease instantly drops your portfolio revenue beneath the debt floor. The investor immediately bleeds negative cashflow and is forced into a rapid liquidation sale.
