Big changes are quietly reshaping the Airbnb landscape—and short-term rental hosts could be paying the price. In this episode of Real Estate News for Investors, Kathy Fettke breaks down Airbnb's latest policy updates, including the new "buy now, pay later" option, increased risk of chargebacks, and unsettling payout delays.

These behind-the-scenes changes may give guests more flexibility, but they shift significant financial risk onto hosts—potentially leaving them with empty calendars, frozen payouts, and unexpected losses.

If you're an Airbnb host, vacation rental owner, or real estate investor, this is a must-listen episode to help you protect your business, your cash flow, and your peace of mind.
