The 2020 Democratic National Convention is expected to bring millions of dollars to the city, and some Airbnb hosts aren't passing up on the chance to fill their pockets as well.

Some hosts are renting out their houses and apartments for over $1,000 per night.

A host who has a place on Third St. is renting out his two-bedroom condo for $3,500 per night. Other listings a little bit further away from the heart of downtown are averaging around $1,000.
