[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]can you link to the proposed legislation? I find it hard to believe the Council would propose to create a tenant’s right to do AirBnB. [/quote] I don’t understand how this would even be possible under a legal lease? The tenant would be effectively subleasing the property which is usually not allowed under the normal terms of a lease. It’s a fundamental change in the use the property. [/quote] DC Council could write a law that states bans on short term sub-leasing - for example, max of 90 days per - are not permissible clauses in leases. It will definitely get challenged in the courts, because it arguably constitutes a “taking” from the landlord. For example, the landlord would need to get a different and more expensive property insurance policy that would cover STR’s by the tenant. [/quote]
