>That sounds terrible, but would it be less terrible if your loud and obnoxious neighbors were long term renters? The rate of loud and obnoxious long term rent

>That sounds terrible, but would it be less terrible if your loud and obnoxious neighbors were long term renters? The rate of loud and obnoxious long term renters is lower, due to the risk of people going to your landlord and forcing your eviction. This can only be done if your behavior is chronic and long standing as an individual. There is no local law I am aware of allowing action against a cycle of short term tenants. >My vacation rentals have rules, especially about noise. If you break the rules I can literally force you to leave right then, as in, collect your stuff and go right now. A landlord who does this will get negative reviews, which will directly lower their income. AirBnB landlords are literally paid to ignore complaints.

>The rate of loud and obnoxious long term renters is lower, due to the risk of people going to your landlord and forcing your eviction. I agree that the rate is higher, but not the reason. Most bad renters know it's almost impossible to get evicted from a long term rental. You must not know anyone who is a long term landlord, because you throw around the word eviction like it's nothing. It's a long and expensive process at the end of which you'll most likely have extensive property damage on top of lost rent. Frankly, you're overestimating the importance of a negative review. If we ever had to kick someone out it would be for a good reason. If you had a party at the house, that would be against our contract and you'd get tossed. I'd then get a bad review, mixed in with all my other 5 star reviews. To that one review I would simply respond "Visitor threw a party with 20 people which was in violation of our contract. This is not a party house and we're upfront about that. Anyone who thinks they can rent my property under false pretenses should heed this review and not rent from me." Now I'm better off on airbnb. My average review is still high and now prospective visitors know I won't put up with shit.
