[quote=Anonymous]I mean ... he said he wants a year-long lease.

We have this issue in the small development where our weekend house is, on the Shenandoah River. There are about 100 houses and not all are on the river. About 2/3 or so are year round residents, and many of these properties are not waterfront. Over the last 4 years or so 7 or 8 airbnbs have sprung up on the waterfront. My DH is on the board and there is constant rage over the airbnbs. The people staying there are disrespectful to the community in multiple ways, but the biggest problem is the speeding on our dirt roads that have a speed limit of 15mph. There are parties/noise problems as well, often during the week when neighbors have to be at work early in the morning.

One of these days there is going to be a big fight. The tension is quite bad.

You can lobby your hoa for restrictions, or town for zoning, but you want to be careful about decisions that affect people's ability to sell their property. We did manage to ban recreational ATV's (or whatever you call them) in our development, which were a big problem with the airbnb people. [/quote]
