As @vrbo’s policy changes shake up the travel and short-term rental industries, our co-founder and CEO, Rena Pacheco-Theard @renapt, shared her insights in Dennis Schaal’s @denschaal @skift article published yesterday: "Rather than travelers being responsible for purchasing trip insurance to protect against natural disasters and abnormal weather events or declared health emergencies, hosts now foot the bill with no compensation."

Now’s the time to buy a #vacationrental #home! The market is shifting in favor of #homebuyers. @hugh_son of @CNBC reports: “Mortgage volumes at @WellsFargo slowed further in recent weeks, leaving some workers idle” and #mortgage origination volume is down 90% from a year ago.

Exciting #traveltrends are ahead this #summer, and we’re thrilled to see @Boutiq co-founder @dbdriscoll weigh in on @chriselliotts latest story in @Forbes! Longer stays and #luxurydestinations lead #trends, making #WorkFromAnywhere better than ever. forbes.com/sites/christopher…

#Airbnb Plus is a valuable concept that we hope comes back strong: “The instinct to create a standard of excellence that #guests can trust...was sound, but the devil is in the details…” – Boutiq's @dbdriscoll (@denschaal // @skift) bit.ly/airbnb-plus-skift #travel #vacation
