The Queensland government will probe the impacts of the short-term rental market on home affordability and demand amid the state's housing crisis.
Deputy Premier Steven Miles says the investigation will look at how much housing is used for short-term rentals, enabled by providers such as Airbnb and Stayz, and the impact of that on other home seekers.
He says short-term providers don't share their data, so the government doesn't have an accurate picture of the sector.
