Utah's Housing Affordability Crisis and Short-Term Rentals
Utah's housing affordability crisis remains a top priority for the state's political leaders, with short-term rentals, such as Airbnbs and VRBOs, being considered for changes in laws.
Lawmakers have been discussing potential changes to Utah's short-term rental laws, with some seeking more restrictions and others seeking more leniency, as the number of short-term rentals continues to grow.
Past research has shown that short-term rentals account for less than 2% of the statewide housing market, but have a greater impact on vacation areas.
