Bruce and TJ discuss the increase in vacation rentals, regulations being put in place by certain cities on these rentals, the types of properties people prefer to rent, technology's role in rentals, the biggest markets for vacation rentals, and much more on this week's Norris Group real estate radio show and podcast.
