@Helen3 These types of regulations are designed to eliminate airbnbs, that's why. Not everyone wants to do a long term rental or a lease arrangement. Mandating either a 30 day minimum stay or a max number of stays like 60 or 90 is designed to kill the STR market, which to me, is a hugely unfair intrusion by the government on how a person uses their own property. A STR is not a hotel, guests are using the unit the same whether they are staying there for 1 day or 1 month, they are using it as a residence, there are no other commercial areas like a hotel lobby, restaurant, or gym, no staff, it's a house or apartment being used as a house or apartment.
As an aside, my city recently also passed STR killing legislation where they are mandating a max of 60 days rented unless the owner is on site, so while it doesn't hurt us, it will certainly hurt everyone else in the market who isn't an onsite host, meaning they will either have to sell or institute a long term lease, and this seems patently unfair to me.
