surely, you jest? A simple google search of AirBnB and illegal will more than satisfy your curiosity. And yes, a good portion of the laws broken are directly broken by the lessors, but many are also broken by AirBnB itself.
- travisoneill1 6y agoI mean laws that existed at the time AirBnB was started, which you seem to imply in your comment. I still think it's strange that the government can tell you how long of a duration you have to rent your property for, but it definitely is the law now.
- ceejayoz 6y agoLaws on short-term rentals, hotel zoning, etc. were all in existence long before AirBnB. Many AirBnB listings were violating laws from the very start. The platform didn't invent a new type of violation, it just made them a lot more common.
- parthdesai 6y agoYeah because taxes surely didn't exist before AirBnb started. https://www.wired.com/story/inside-airbnbs-guerrilla-war-against-local-governments/ https://www.wired.com/story/inside-airbnbs-guerrilla-war-aga...
