- hkmurakami 12y agoI don't know the details, but I learned last week when I was in LA that LA allows "short term vacation rentals" that I believe are distinct from subletting. So I believe that these two are not necessarily the same, depending on the city's legalese.
- apaprocki 12y agoFor example, NYC has "fixed" the law to be very clear. "What the Law Says -- Contrary to what many may think, New York laws about short term rentals are pretty clear, thanks to a new law went into affect in 2011. "Under the New York State multiple dwelling law, a residential multiple dwelling can only be used for what is termed 'permanent resident purposes,'" explains attorney Robert Braverman. "What that means under the statute is that it has to be occupied by the same person or family for 30 or more consecutive days." So anything less than 30 days, no matter how you swing it, is violating the law, unless of course, the place is zoned to be a hotel or hostel."[0] [0]: http://ny.curbed.com/archives/2013/03/25/an_introduction_to_new_yorks_short_term_rental_laws.php http://ny.curbed.com/archives/2013/03/25/an_introduction_to_...

- pessimizer 12y agoNot in Chicago; A landlord can't prevent you from a reasonable sublet. Subletting isn't the same as short-term renting, though.
- tptacek 12y agoNo, but landlords are allowed to apply the same criteria to subtenants as they do to original tenants, which pretty much kills Airbnb (at least through that clause).
