Brussels proposed rules to regulate short-term rentals, creating a regulatory framework aimed at controlling the activity of platforms like Airbnb. The initiative comes in the context of growing concerns about the impact of these rentals on the European real estate market.
The European Union created the Affordable Housing Law with the objective of establishing common criteria across all Member States. This legislation defines when an area faces a housing pressure situation, identifying the conditions that justify regulatory intervention.
According to the article, the new rules allow specific measures to be taken in areas identified as being under housing pressure. The common framework aims to harmonize the approach of different EU countries in regulating short-term rentals.
