I think the problem is getting variances for zoning on the Air BnB properties where they don’t live. Variances are not guaranteed and applying for them are time-consuming and costly. Based on the new rules the zoning needs to be a certain way if you don’t live in the property. If it’s not zoned correctly, then you have to do a typical leasing arrangement and all the paperwork and clearances that go with it. Pre-regulation changes, Air BnB just made it easier to circumvent a lot of the requirements and costs associated with leasing out property.
