- Portugal has unveiled sweeping reforms to make buying and renting homes more affordable for locals.
- Part of the crackdown is not granting new licenses for new Airbnbs or other short-term rentals.
- The prime minister said he's seeking to "balance" local housing needs and economy-boosting tourism.
Portugal last week announced the suspension of new licenses for Airbnbs within its borders, according to Reuters.
