Case Study: Colliers International strengthens Airbnb impact research with AirDNA

Using Short-Term Rental Data to Predict the Disruptive Impact of Airbnb

Colliers International, a global real estate advisory firm, needed to understand the disruptive impact of Airbnb on the hotel industry but lacked access to accurate, in-depth statistical information. Their challenge was to provide reliable advice to hotel owner clients without being able to decipher the methodology behind available data. They turned to vendor AirDNA and its comprehensive Property Performance Data for a solution.

Using AirDNA's data, Colliers analyzed the quantity of listings, booked nights, property types, and nightly rates in specific markets. This allowed them to track trends, seasonality, and the impact of local events. The solution provided by AirDNA enabled Colliers to confidently answer client questions and demonstrate thought leadership. The results included significant PR value and established the firm as an expert on the subject, enhancing its reputation in the industry.
