At it's core, this is the root cause of the housing crisis. We do not have enough supply. The amount of Airbnb's that exist is extremely miniscule and the targeting of Airbnbs is an intentional distraction tactic.

The fact of the matter is that Single Family Homes are an incredible luxury that our parents and grandparents were able to enjoy when the country had half as many people as it does now.

If you want an affordable house you will need to move to a rural area where land and labor are cheap. If you want to live near any reasonably sized city, you better be upper middle class to even think about buying a SFH.
