[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]CM McDuffie on the Kojo show today: "If you have a home and you have an English basement, you will be able to rent it out 365 days a year under this bill."[/quote]

This is good and should be reassuring to most owners who rent as the AirBnB model originally intended. The same will obviously be true for those who rent out rooms in their personal homes.

Those who are sweating and swearing are the "professional" AirBnB managers who fraudulently take out leases or pull entire buildings off the market. They may end up in a liquidity crisis, if they've committed to a year or two year lease and then get locked out of AirBnB. Tough luck! These folks are actually AirBnB's biggest drivers of profit, so AirBnB is defending them vigorously. [/quote]

Please read the actual law too and not just the media spin from one source.  It is good he is open to changing some of the language.[/quote]
