How many long term rentals did that net Burlington? I saw that law and thought it was a bad idea so I already have an opinion but do you know if there is data out there on its impact? I always prefer data over anecdote or opinion.
I’m trying to find data but can’t. I did find this though.

When housing availability is .06% 1% is a lot

That is assuming they were all converted to Long term rentals which is why I asked if there was any actual data that was not conjecture. Sounds like a no.

I mean, it's been less than a year. There won't be any data yet. We just have subjective analysis for now. It certainly seems like there is more supply right now. It's still expensive but you don't have to spend a year just to get an expensive unit. It's going in the right direction. It's still too early to tell

What else are they going to do? Sell.

Not rent. Let it sit vacant. Ignore the law and see if BTV has an teeth. Lots of other options.
