Airbnb has shaken up the hospitality industry, giving guests new options for vacation and short-term rentals. As the Airbnb community grew in size and popularity, property managers were also feeling the effects of the “shake up.” New policies and leasing agreements were drawn up across several communities to address the allowance of the Airbnb model and short-term renting.
