Their cracking down? Not surprised if city councilors got their hands in the tourism industry and they're part owners with some of these hotels and don't like their business being taken away and create all sorts of by-laws to protect their financial interests. Whenever some situations make you say "WTF", just think of the all mighty dollar.
The big boys see the 99% making some extra side cash...NOT IN MY HOUSE! Slap some taxes on it and keep me at the top 1% with you doing all the hard work thnx
This has nothing to do with the 1%. This has everything to do with laws that don't serve anyone but government and protects big business from competition.
This is a huge problem where I live. The population density has grown so much in my neighborhood due to renters. In fact, there's people who make millions buying and renting rooms. However, this woman shouldn't be fined, since she's only renting for extra money, not for profit.
I have someone doing this in my neighborhood. At any given time it appears there are 3-4 guests in the home. The guests are usually quiet but there have been incidents. The guests are also taking up parking spots and coming and going at all hours. It's problematic and honestly I would have never moved here if I had any inkling this would be going on. My area is zoned for residential housing not for hotels.
So if I let my friebd soebd the night for a few dollars.. Is my house now an illegal hotel… government needs to chill.. We don't want all these dumb laws anymore..
Their is a whole host as to why people are being fined like the minority who rent out a good portion of apts as Airbnb thus preventing people from renting said apartments. Then you also have to clean after yourself and if you have hiccup you can be screwed over. It is not just hotels beating up airbnb
You are not a good neighbor if you run a lodging service out of a residential home or condo. Having lots of guests is obviously going to annoy others and should be done in moderation. If your house is remotely situated enough to avoid disturbing neighbors then it might be ok, however, guests are NOT residents and will not have the same consideration as they should... it’s an issue
GotLotsaFaith Not having enough money to keep your house up that’s a bad neighbor. The person is not enough money to pay their taxes that’s also bad neighbor. B&B many times can help the person reason of money to keep their house looking pretty and looking respectable that’s a good neighbor
Seriously how many of you would like living next door to a revolving door of renters? The old couple next to me decided to move to Florida and rent their place. Nothing but trashy people rented that house. And it was a decent house. They eventually had to move back because they got tired of every renter trashing it and/or not paying.
I don’t care. If they own the land it’s their business not mine. And I’m not saying a thing until it starts impacting me. I like neighbors who leave me alone and I like leaving my neighbors alone.
I've never seen such greed that is rampant in this country !! Anyway the suits can get money out of you they will. Will cost this poor women thousands just to rectify the situation and nothing in return.
At the rate she's charging, she must be renting out roughly 100 rooms a year. So her neighbors have strangers coming and going every third day: I seriously doubt that they view her as a good neighbor. She is running a business out of her home, and most municipalities have limits on how much traffic is allowed for a home business. This is why we have zoning laws. Limiting room rentals to someone's primary residence also keeps rich folks from jacking up purchase prices so much that locals can't afford to buy homes. AirBnB buyers can make money purchasing modest homes for double what most residents would otherwise pay, effectively keeping average folk from being able to find or afford houses.
Why is it ok to rent out a whole house in a neighborhood and subject those neighbors to a steady stream of strangers in their neighborhood? People have forgotten right and wrong, Just because you want or need money doesn’t make it right.
Illegal hotels make it impossible to rent or own a place in that city at a fair rate or low regulated rate. Thus leading to a high proverty situation or homeless situation. I wish people used their brains on why some laws were made. Certain laws are pushed into place by not a big man or the 1%.it takes lots of blood, sweat and tears from regular people to push certain laws
The only reason I do not like to rent Airbnb is because I suspect they have cameras everywhere watching me. In a Holiday Inn or Hilton I don't worry about a camera in my room or bathroom. But I've used Airbnb all over Europe because it was the cheapest way to go.
People using AirBNB is making people like me, struggling to pay my rent, harder to keep a roof over my head. People don't understand that more tourists coming in make my rent jump through the fucking roof. I don't want this to become popular & I don't have a place anymore because I cannot afford it. Even with 4 jobs....
Irvine will fine you 200 dollars per booking per night. They've established an entire task force to fine people-where there is money, there will be regulations:(
You shouldn't be able to operate this kind of business without proper protocol. I don't want a whole bunch of strangers going in and out of my community or complex.
Do something about the rental prices in California. THAT is what should be illegal. The politicians approving these fines are in bed with hotel chains. They pay for laws to be passed.
It's the people or companies that buy investment properties to use as AirBnB rentals that spoil it for everyone. I agree that you should reside in the property if you want host a room in AirBnB. That'll keep the ones who want to undercut the hotels in the area away. I don't think AirBnB was created to be used in that way. As far as individuals needing to get a permit to host a room in their own property, that's complete horse poop. Regulators tend to overreact. That regulation is plain stupid
if you can do it too....why get so upset over it? FOUR REAL LAWS THE WORLD SHOULD FOLLOW!!! 1. DO NO HARM TO ANYONE 2. DO NO HARM TO THEIR PROPERTY 3. DON'T IMPEDE THEIR PROGRESS 4. DON'T IMPEDE THEIR PROSPERITY Anything else is GREED and FRAUD!
Lot of people in the comments who don't seem to know about the other side of this issue; that being land owners taking long terms rentals off the market and putting them up as short term rentals for only a few times out of the year in places that already have housing issues. Don't get me wrong, if someone owns their property they should fucking own their property, but among many other seemingly complex issues, you've got the obvious problem that a lot of people are finding it more and more difficult to find long term rentals, and most of those types of people are the type that are middle to lower class working infrastructure jobs as well as retail and humans service jobs that keep most places commercially viable that draw in vacation renters in the first place. I'm living in a place now that has a serious issue with expanding it's population while finding housing for it, partly because it is a somewhat remote area, but part of the other reason is that many houses up here that were once long term rentals are now short term vacation rentals that only get used a fraction of the year. People who do all the jobs that make this place nice can, at times, barely afford rent, so buying a house or something sure as hell isn't possible, and with that being the case the population has started to stagnate, which good in some regards, but if more landowners start changing to vacation rentals, the population is just gonna decrease until you get to the point that there aren't enough people to run things and make this a habitable location, certainly not during the summer when the vacationers come round. There has to be a balance here where the needs of locals are met and landowners still have viable option to utilize their properties to make money, and I'm not entirely certain that huge fines and higher taxes are the exact means to carry that out, I think it's and excellent PUNISHMENT, but not a fair deterrent or means of achieving equilibrium, at the very least it's drawing attention to the issue. (I should note that many houses here are in fact vacation homes to begin with, so it fudges the numbers a bit when I try to figure out how many houses have been converted from long term to short term.)
Thats a sorry excuse, "I would be happy to play be the rules if they were clear"! She clearly knows and she is a grown adult, Do your research before you get "Zapped"!
Sorry air b&b just riping folks off. They need to have everything setup for you and notify you of changes. Every city has some kinda hotel tax. How do you think they pay for all these sports stadiums
crashweaverda If you know what the price is going and how was summer being ripped off you must be a low IQ low functioning person worried about everybody else
I hate staying in hotels and would choose AirBnB or similar any time (unless I feel the host is too creepy for my safety). I also hosted guests in the past for free but cannot do that now because of the gate security arrangements and working long hours... The beauty is that the host and the guest choose each other, whereas it doesn't happen in a hotel. Also, I want to be able to cook my own food wherever I am rather than try to find a restaurant that is open when I want to eat and that serves food for special diets (and I still couldn't be sure what they put into it). A hotel with cooking facilities are not all that common and the price reflects the extra convenience. I agree that any hosting gig should have limits of how many days of the year one can open the door for guests, otherwise it is no different from a hotel. But I think ruling that the host has to be present at the time is ridiculous. Say, I need to go for a seminar or training workshop for a week, during which time I have to pay for accommodation: that means effectively paying for two places at once! However, if I can rent my space for the duration, I am only paying a little more or the same (if I find a place of the same value) as if I was staying at home.
I agree with the government. If you're renting out your rooms or property then you need to follow the rules. If you're renting out more than one room then it should be considered a Motel and you should need a license. And you should be collecting taxes and forwarding that to the government because you are creating an income.
NY, LA, San Diego, are all ruled by Democrats, who want equality in poverty. It's OK, chances are these people elected the politicians, that do this to them, or they gave a shit and let others decide for them. People have the government they deserve. A Lemonade Stand in Las Vegas costs $800 in licensing. To be allowed to flip burgers costs only $100 in licensing. Johnson & Johnson started their empire with a few bucks from the family in a Garage. Doing exactly the same, what they did would cost today a sizable 6 digit amount, primarily for legal cost. Democrats, Republicans makes no difference. The politicians must follow party line and are tight in a power structure of lobbyists. Even if they wanted to, they cannot represent the people. Independent Candidates can. Until the power structures of organized politics (crime) are broken up, it's getting worse, every day.
I had a front desk lady come in my room at 3 AM once. No knock. Just let herself in. Her excuse was she was dropping off a package for me. Who does that at 3 AM in a hotel? And no, I didn't. Fat and ugly.
Let me tell you, you don't know how big the dark side of AirBnB is. I work for them. Their driving motto is "belong anywhere" under the guise of diversity. They are an extremely left organization. They're pretty strict about things like a Host not being able to screen guests by religion, race, or background. You may knowingly or unknowingly be smuggling people or terrorists. The safeguards are so thin. It's also easy for hosts to ripoff guests up to $5,000 with bogus insurance claims. Like getting appliances replaced for free. Remember the Las Vegas shooter was in multiple overlapping rentals at the same time and got around his ID requirements.
Lets gather for protest in events like this. It is obvious that huge corporations will skip taxing while simple people like her making little money will pay...
Need to fight the people WithIn government that seem not to understand the basics of our way of living. Citizens have to be informed and wield their power of voting. City and State elections are literally happening right now. 🙄 #educateyourself #americansAREgovproperty
In cali you need a permit to do almost anything. Even a waitress needs a license. Thy have to take a course and get certified. Grocery employees who handle produce also have to get certified. Its California that's the problem
Wow She was legal and wasn’t stealing taxes, being illegal, or unreasonable Shameful There are websites with hundreds of rentals by certain ethnic groups that are VERY illegal ... not reporting the business, no tax, guilty of exploitation... etc... Please get them, not the honest ones who are easy to gain profit from.
I'm in favour of regulation, safety & standards but hate to see petty over regulation from local authorities. If the Mafia were taking a slice of the action it would be called extortion!
That's cuz they don't want her making money. We can't have that now, can we? People making money. Then the billionaires won't seem as powerful. Oh noooo....lol
FOUR REAL LAWS THE WORLD SHOULD FOLLOW!!! 1. DO NO HARM TO ANYONE 2. DO NO HARM TO THEIR PROPERTY 3. DON'T IMPEDE THEIR PROGRESS 4. DON'T IMPEDE THEIR PROSPERITYAnything else is GREED and FRAUD!
"Place isn't that nice" .... I'm guessin' you still believe "Motel 6" actually has rooms for $6.00 a night? Even cheap fleabag hotel/motels, by the freeway are minimum $50 - $60 bucks a night; plus, you got to be out of the room by 10 or 11 am.
:-) lolz well i saw some places for around 27-30 bux a night on the site so i was like 80bux a night is a bit high cause u stay at her place for 1month u gota pay like $2500 bux witch is pretty preicey so renting a apratment woulda been cheaper thats how i look at it but i can see where your comming from if your just a renter for a week or so aint to bad i guess
The only reason I do not like to rent Airbnb is because I suspect they have cameras everywhere watching me. In a Holiday Inn or Hilton I don't worry about a camera in my room or bathroom. But I've used Airbnb all over Europe because it was the cheapest way to go.
Big Hotel chains must be giving out nice gifts to politicians
John Gallo that's what I thought too!
John Gallo you nailed it. I would guess the hospitality industry has excellent lobbyists.
It really means that your house is not really your house you are just the one who gets to sleep there.
Yeah rent own same shit you gotta pay property taxes even if you buy the house cash
Consumerism is not Capitalism,Been saying that for years.
No shit..everyone pays property taxes, basically rent your house to yourself-that’s retarded. And now this Airbnb bullshit
The Sprite Show true
This is obscene. They always want to get their mitts into peoples' business.
5jerry1 I thought we had a free market..... LAZIESFAIR stupid GOVERNMENT!!!!
So you people would have no problem if a cement factory was built right next door to your home. After all, we have a free market.
Wha they don't pass a bill to cap rent and mortgage prices ? Rent and mortgage are a burden ! They just want to squeeze the poor more and more !
You are one stupid fuck.
Educate on why illegal hotels are bad for people renting in those cities
Their cracking down?

Hotel lobbyists at work.
The big boys see the 99% making some extra side cash...NOT IN MY HOUSE! Slap some taxes on it and keep me at the top 1% with you doing all the hard work thnx
really don't think this is the case...
hotel chains like the trump line hate this
AAH yes stupid person here

For the neighbors it must be like living next to a crack house - strangers constantly going in and out at all hours

Want to be in the hotel/ motel business buy a commercial hotel/motel.....it's called a single family home for a reason.....
Exactly
So if I let my friebd soebd the night for a few dollars.. Is my house now an illegal hotel… government needs to chill.. We don't want all these dumb laws anymore..
You see why it's hard to live the American dream. It can be bought by corrupt politicians and companies that dont want to lose any revenue.

Not paying is not the option on Airbnb or booking.com
I don’t care. If they own the land it’s their business not mine. And I’m not saying a thing until it starts impacting me. I like neighbors who leave me alone and I like leaving my neighbors alone.
How is she at fault if she was *assured* by her municipal government she isn't breaking the law?
I've never seen such greed that is rampant in this country !! Anyway the suits can get money out of you they will. Will cost this poor women thousands just to rectify the situation and nothing in return.
Too much. They make more than enough money off society and want more. Just greedy
EVE WARD You don’t get to decide how much money somebody makes that’s not your fucking business

The government will always find a way to take your money.
Same with Uber don't you need a licence or permit to charge people for lifts?

Yup...'Murica...
"Land of the free".
LMFAO
Its about time something is being done about this. Put this crap in your own backyard.
Wow. I feel for her. Hope this gets cleared up.
As an ex teacher she should know that "Ignorance of the law is no defense." That's right.
You have original documents from Council. You must have strong case.
So did she pay taxes on that $15.000 she made.
Max MAX She paid all her taxes that’s what the story was about
Love the comments. You all are right
noneya123 are you being sarcastic
MultiChantal22 No I just agree with all the comments, chill.
its a shame we don't live in a world where we can host guests and visit other homes without encountering problems.
So what if she doesn’t pay? What can the city do to her?
Land of the not so free!
Real simple the true measure of ownership is the ability to sell or rent it
Irvine will fine you 200 dollars per booking per night. They've established an entire task force to fine people-where there is money, there will be regulations:(

prettymochame just T You don’t get to control who comes in who goes in your neighborhood that’s not up to you quite frankly I’m sure you’re a problem
Do something about the rental prices in California. THAT is what should be illegal. The politicians approving these fines are in bed with hotel chains. They pay for laws to be passed.
Soon be charging folks for monthly rental of a roommate in your house...
Amazing
her house and neighborhood is so beautiful
That's bs its your property you own it and should not be told what you can do with it
They just want to make profit off of everything people do. Period
more proof that you dont own what you buy you only rent the ability to live there and do what they allow you to do to it.
And pay taxes on it
Is this really a surprise? Uncle Sam always wants his money no matter what is yours
It's the people or companies that buy investment properties to use as AirBnB rentals that spoil it for everyone. I agree that you should reside in the property if you want host a room in AirBnB.

Question to all the men here. If you rented from her and she came into your room at night and got under the covers what would you do?
Shove it as hard and deep in all her holes after tying her up.
knock it out you never know vintage might be the bees knees 🤔
I had a front desk lady come in my room at 3 AM once. No knock. Just let herself in. Her excuse was she was dropping off a package for me. Who does that at 3 AM in a hotel? And no, I didn't. Fat and ugly.
I'd tell her to fuck off and curse the stars for not giving me such luck with women in their 20s-30s.

"Place isn't that nice" .... I'm guessin' you still believe "Motel 6" actually has rooms for $6.00 a night?
Even cheap fleabag hotel/motels, by the freeway are minimum $50 - $60 bucks a night; plus, you got to be out of the room by 10 or 11 am.
:-) lolz well i saw some places for around 27-30 bux a night on the site so i was like 80bux a night is a bit high cause u stay at her place for 1month u gota pay like $2500 bux witch is pretty preicey so renting a apratment woulda been cheaper thats how i look at it but i can see where your comming from if your just a renter for a week or so aint to bad i guess
The only reason I do not like to rent Airbnb is because I suspect they have cameras everywhere watching me. In a Holiday Inn or Hilton I don't worry about a camera in my room or bathroom. But I've used Airbnb all over Europe because it was the cheapest way to go.
