Airbnb Sues New York City over Limits on Short-Term Rentals
- gdcohen 3y agoSee also: https://news.airbnb.com/an-update-about-our-community-in-new-york-city/ https://news.airbnb.com/an-update-about-our-community-in-new... Essentially NY City is making short term rentals (rentals < 30 days) illegal for most renters. The only exception is a room without a lock, for up to 2 people, in a residence that has shared living space and is occupied by the owner.
