150 units potentially going up for long-term rent in just a single building? This new law may have much more of an effect than people anticipate. Even if it only has a minor effect, I'm happy this government seems to be implementing literally every good idea out there.

The last numbers I saw for airbnbs were huge. Anecdotally I know of 2 people who bought property as an investment and use airbnb.

This law can't come fast enough.
