These Airbnb articles serve as a reminder to be very careful when buying into a neighbourhood or vacation area (cottage) that may appeal to Airbnb clients and hosts. If I knew that the condo/home/cottage served as an Airbnb, vrbo  or short term rental next door,  there is no way I would want to buy.  

I don't mind renting from Airbnb/VRBO  but I sure don't want to live next door to one!  Zoning came about for a reason.
