Short-Term Rentals Fueling Homelessness Crisis | Perth News
Description
New data reveals a housing crisis in NSW as short-term rentals surge—nearly 50,000 in just three months—far outpacing long-term options, especially along the coast. This imbalance is pushing vulnerable people into homelessness, overwhelming services and forcing some to sleep in tents or cars. Experts blame the explosion of Airbnb-style stays, rising costs, and domestic violence, calling for a 7.5% levy on short-term rentals to help fix the problem.
