Re:CAP - Lighter than Air: Regulating Short Term Rentals

Welcome back to Re:CAP - Per Capita's premier podcast where we unpack our latest research and examine the inequalities in Australian society. 

This week, Matt Lloyd-Cape is joined by Per Capita’s Andrew Herington Fellow, Lucy Tonkin, to chat about the impact of short-term rental (STR) platforms such as AirBnB on the Australian rental market, and how they have become increasingly problematic, particularly since the end of the COVID-19 lockdowns, as long-term rental dwelling availability has shrunk, and prices increased.
