Growth in private rental demand from international travelers

Europe has the largest tourism industry in the world and is holding largest share of the global vacation rental market. Every year, millions of people from all over the globe flock to its shores in search of sun, sand and sea. And with so many tourists come an extreme demand for rental accommodation. In recent years, the rise of Airbnb has made it easier than ever for travelers to find a place to stay in Europe. However, this has also led to a sharp increase in rent prices, as landlords can now charge whatever they want for their properties. This is especially true in popular tourist destinations such as Barcelona, Paris and Amsterdam, where rents have soared to astronomical levels. In some cases, a one-bedroom apartment can cost upwards of €1,000 per month!
