Local property owners are scoring — as they jack up short-term rents for soccer tourists during the World Cup. Some owners are demanding 1,500% more per night than normal as locals look to capitalize on footie fanatics flocking to the region for matches that kick off at MetLife on June 13 and finish there on July 19. A Post review of properties on popular short-term rental websites showed nearly all listed spaces, from one-bedroom matchboxes to luxe multi-bedroom mansions, were at least doubling the cost per night on days specifically tied to match dates.
