Palm Springs home values in "free-fall" after city cracks down on Airbnb

According to the L.A. Times, a wave of crackdowns on short-term rental permits has sent home prices into "free-fall" in the California desert community. As homes sit on the market, unsold, one buyer who paid $1.5 Million for a home says he'd be lucky to get $1 Million. Call it "Air-b-n-bust," after years of complaints from residents, the city passed an ordinance in 2022 to restrict short-term rental permits to no more than 20% of properties in any of the city's 66 neighborhoods. Some enclaves, like the popular Racquet Club Estates, are way above that mark, with 40% of homes being classified as short-term rentals. For the many who bought a home in the city during the pandemic and hoped to it into an revenue opportunity, many are disappointed the permits are non-transferrable, even among family members.

@Greymatter-to3th Most cities aren't vacation destinations and don't need to do anything. And some vacation destinations don't want to shoot themselves in the foot by making it harder for paying tourists to find places to stay. Many such places have lower priced outlying areas where locals can afford housing. It's a particular problem, though, in the mountains near ski resorts, where there's so little habitable land and in California generally where pretty much every place is absurdly expensive.

Starting in July of 2019, short-term rentals will only be allowed in owners’ primary residences, and both short-term rental operators and online rental platforms such as Airbnb, VRBO, and HomeAway will have to abide by several new requirements. The city also plans to step up its enforcement of short-term vacation rentals....The city will also require three-night minimum stays for popular coastal areas and downtown."

As a Palm Springs resident, I don’t know where the “free fall” data is coming from. A lot of new buyers are also full timers (a huge demographic change due to the pandemic) and these new residents also don’t want renters. Palm Springs proper is built out and supply is very low for single family homes. The modern midcentury homes are highly sought after. People don’t want to buy million dollar homes also don’t want to be next to party houses.

Right, it’s good for the people living in that neighborhood. But it’s also good for multiple nearby neighborhoods as well. Just sucks for the abnb owners, but is massively worth it

There's no free fall. It's BS.

[@TSinRM]

I'm also a Palm Springs resident. Where is this "free fall" referenced in the report? Prices of home are still through the roof (pun intended). Vacation rentals have artificially escalated the price of homes and make it nearly impossible for an average person who is not an investor, or investment group to afford a home. Prices will respond to normal market conditions when the brakes are applied to this Air BNB nonsense.

[@BobbyMcGee_2023]

Hopefully the "Free-Fall" will result in home prices falling to values working-class Americans can afford to buy. AirBnB resulted in thousands of houses disappearing from the real estate market, leaving what few remained for sale to skyrocket in price!

It creates an artificial housing shortage. People can't buy or rent homes because whole neighborhoods are giant motels. Anyway, who would want to live in an area that has the feel of living in a cheap Vegas hotel? I'm all for more cities doing this. People who are buying are speculating while driving out families that make it a community. If the rules are changed after a speculator bought their house and now is crying foul, so be it. Rules are made to be changed. When the reporter said "let the free market decide," she really didn't think out that statement. Imagine a world with no zoning laws.

That's a sensible policy. I live in a destination vacation town (near a ski mtn) - there are virtually no long-term rentals in our town for average people who don't own homes and must rent. There has not been new building either in the last few years. Blackrock, Vanguard, etc, are buying up homes to control the housing market.

[@maddierosemusic]

Part of the issue is that long term renters have been trashing properties, not paying rent (covid induced for some), and staying free until evicted which takes months or a year. Landlords like myself have thrown in the towel and gone to Air BnB which has policies in place to protect owners. Tenants have done this to themselves in many areas.

I used to own a weekend house in Palm Springs that I bought when prices were fairly low following an economic downturn, so I know that market pretty well. IMO, this is less about Airbnbs than it is high mortgage interest rates. Palm Springs is a place with a lot of second homes and investment properties, and those markets are always the first to be hit in unfavorable economic/financial climates. These properties become much more out of reach when people are forced to pay thousands more each month in interest charges. It was fairly easy to see this coming, with rates the highest they've been in over 20 years.

There's a reason hotels cannot be built in residential neighborhoods or why industrial properties can't be in shopping malls or why shopping malls cannot be used as offices. Uses are separated by zoning for a reason, and properties values change depending on that zoning. AirbnB temporarily found a way to increase property values and rental income by skirting zoning laws. Effectively turning residential zones into commercial entertainment zones. It was only a matter of time before the laws caught up.

Yeah, I totally agree, we cannot continue using housing as a profit center. People need a place to live. We also need to limit the insanity of foreign investors scooping up properties and never even living in them. They just sit fake it.

[@victoriasebanz281]

I am in agreement with people living in the community. However, if you live there and rent out part of the property, that should be allowed. Follow the money. The hotel chains are miffed that everyday folk are finding ways to put food on the table.

[@SigFigNewton]

Banks are miffed that this will lower mortgage costs

[@waltchan]

If AirBnb is no longer popular in Palm Springs, then the investors move on to the new homes near the UC Riverside campus, called Spring Mountain Ranch community by KB Home.

[@eisbeinGermany]

there will always be a way to get around it,

[@SigFigNewton]

Sucks to live in spring mountain ranch I guess

[@eisbeinGermany]

@@SigFigNewton lol,

[@charkswitlazers]

Those houses are junk and not even short term rental worthy. I live downtown (Riverside), that’s just another suburb built by KB at subpar quality. No college kids are gonna throw a party in highgrove.

[@user-ve6nd8wr7x]

With all due respect to Riverside, it's not exactly an iconic tourist destination. People will keep going to Palm Springs... they'll just have to stay in hotels, of which there happen to be many fantastic ones at all price points.

[@23pinkpear]

good! do this every where families are suffering i just saw my daughters friend Ari fall behind on rent homeless she’s washing herself at school in the sink! This is sick someone stop this greed

[@MichaelChengSanJose]

Ah, that explains why Palm Spring home prices were so crazy when I was there last year. Good time to pick up a reasonable deal soon.

[@Gary-sx5ox]

Palm Springs is in the desert. During the peak season, December thru March the population explodes to over a hundred thousand. During non peak months the area shrinks to ten thousand. Limiting tourism access to this area would really hurt their economy. We stay a month at a time and would never stay anywhere accept an ABNB.

[@ktm4042]

About time. AirBNB has been sich a huge detriment to affordable and available housing. Good riddance.

[@user-xi7gz6sz4w]

Full-time residents don't want to live among vacation renters.

[@barnandhome]

I own a few rentals and run them fully furnished…. I SUPPORT THIS! Even in the Midwest with affordable housing, if too many homes get pulled out of the normal market it screws it up for all the locals.

[@Starfish2145]

What this means is the investors with cash will buy more houses at a better price point and put them in the long-term rental market. Or they’ll buy as a second home. This will not make houses in Palm Springs affordable to the average buyer, especially with current interest rates.

[@islandbirdw]

How are they planning to enforce this 20 percent?

[@tcfoxdude]

Every short term rental has to have a permit. Palm Springs has distinct neighborhood zones and it’s easily tracked how many permits are located in each zone.

[@50CJAZZ]

And, there’s always the neighbor who will report you if you try to do it without the permit. The fine is $10,000 first time violation.

[@markdc1145]

Good! Anything to deflate the home price "bubble"

[@Wahunganganshapunck]

Airbnb is shady af

[@jongriffin2125]

Imagine a California that didn’t condone mass illegal immigration, limited Airbnb, eliminated state income tax, made smash and grab robberies a class 2 felony with mandatory min 10 years, opened mental asylums for crazy people, and banned panhandling. Imagine!

[@AMBROSIA1320]

🎵 "And I think to myself...what a wonderful world" 🎵 😀

[@seminolefantodd4736]

My mother lives in Rowland Heights and swears the house across the street from her is an Airbnb as there are nine cars parked in front of the house all the time; 4 in the driveway and 5 on the street. It's ridiculous!

[@Troy-nc5br]

In nashville where I live there aren't alot of air bnb and am glad never would I want my neighborhood being occupied by strangers we look out for each other and it is a safe neighborhood with high value homes the air bnb homes don't add value either because the few I have seen in nashville are run down

[@user-vi2dk1qz5f]

great news to hear.

[@TheRealTommyR]

The guy anchor cutting the woman anchor off every time she starts talking

[@DemPilafian]

Communities should be *either 0% or 100%* Airbnb and nothing in between. It's abusive to the full-time residents to turn a good community into a partial motel community with random people moving in and out of the community every day.

[@elaishh3533]

That’s a good way to stomp out competition. Better be in the club or you get forced out - the story of CA

[@tcfoxdude]

It’s not the competition that’s driving these out. Its residents who don’t want to live next to party houses every week.

[@tomsimpson5317]

Get rid of air BNB greed

[@lovethieves1383]

That's the whole point of Palm Springs. Bored Boomers and Airbnb rentals. Why else would you live in 108 degree weather with nothing to do but go to cookie cutter shopping malls and golf courses.

[@georgespalding7640]

You can always tell someone in the comment section who has no idea about the culture of Palm Springs and surrounding communities. That's all right we don't need you to visit here anyway.

[@Chrismarquez7]

Every single a-hole that ran to Palm Springs and over paid on properties just to try and flip them for even higher ridiculously amounts. I hope struggles to sell and takes a major loss so they can’t do it again down the road.

[@JohnDoe-xu2vx]

Might mean more foreclosures coming if owners are dependent on rental income to make payments

[@tahoetom9932]

Same things happening in the Tahoe area!

[@JimsRockShots]

They need to do this everywhere. Something with rental properties.

[@timmaloney6441]

yeah , I Love the Desert , used to be bargain prices but Today it's ridiculous .

[@BicycleFunk]

We are doing this in my city right now and a number of others are too. If this isn't happening in your city, you need to head to your local city council and bring them the facts.

[@stanlevox2291]

Cameras watching your pooper at air bnb's.

[@SigFigNewton]

Cameras within the pooper

[@myyoutubename152]

Good job!! We have tons of hotels with low utilization.

[@bmuns6445]

The way to get around ABB is to rent to traveling nurses.
