The US markets where Airbnb listings are surging, and where they’re collapsing
Property Reach's analysis shows oversupply, inflation, and regulations threaten many U.S. Airbnb markets, while some cities like Buffalo and Sarasota show potential for stable growth.
- Using 2025 findings and a 2026 outlook, Property Reach analyzed AirDNA data to identify United States Airbnb markets likely to collapse or boom as of 2026.
- After the global pandemic occupancy spike flooded the STR market with subpar options, rising inflation pushed upkeep costs too high and Airbnb removed over 59,000 listings in 2023 amid stricter local rules.
- Kissimmee shows the fallout where investor oversupply left properties empty even during peak season, Sarasota, Florida recorded a-9% YoY decline per AirDNA, and Santa Monica, California enforces host presence and a 14% TOT.
- Faced with rising costs, many inexperienced STR owners are exiting the market, while Airbnb-friendly apartment buildings emerge and investors shift toward Buffalo, New York with fewer STR rules.
- Some analysts frame the downturn as market maturity rather than collapse, and Property Reach urges investors to use property-search tools and consider Airbnb and alternative platforms carefully.
