The article specifically mentions at least one property owner who has been denied any recourse because of the lack of before/after photos (presumably before that specific rental).

How do you rent out your place and don’t take any photos before?

  I’m sure Airbnb operators get comfortable turning it over every few days without having to constantly take photos. Most guests don’t bring robots in to smash up the dishwasher and dent the walls

    Sure but taking a photo of everything in its “good” state seems reasonable. You don’t need to constantly update the photos if nothing gets smashed.

      We don’t really know the details. Perhaps they had “good state” photos that were rejected by Airbnb for not being recent enough.

      It's easy to say that as someone who doesn't actually rent out their property regularly on airbnb.
