CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Natalie Siburt purchased her first home in Charlotte last month and, until recently, she’d been settling in nicely.
But last Tuesday evening, she spotted a man dropping off luggage at her door. When Siburt approached him, he asked about checking in to the Airbnb located inside her condo, as described in a TikTok video.
Siburt, a Greenville, South Carolina, native, says she was perplexed by the stranger’s query. She had no idea her home had been listed on the popular short-term rental site by the previous homeowner’s tenant.
