It's quite a high blame I'd say. I actually have a friend who does this. He's been in the Airbnb game since pretty much they showed up and he now has 4 or 5 flats.

He could rent them out, but the long term rent contracts would not net him the same amount in a year than what he gets in just the summer months. Plus, long term contracts have a lot of other expectations from him as a land lord, whilst Airbnb is pretty chill.

From his point of view, airbnb is amazing, from my point of view when I was searching for a flat, I wanted to stab him in the face. It is what it is.
