[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This would not be legal in DC. The main house has to be owner-occupied to have a short-term rental. I have an airbnb in my basement and have never had noise complaints, but we go out of our way to be mindful of our guests because the money is so good. [/quote] It’s not legal in DC, you’re right, and the new law is ridiculous. Basically the new law allows owners of row homes who can’t get certificates of occupancy to rent out their basements to long term tenants - the majority of basement apartments in this city - to rent them out instead as short term airbnbs. This has the opposite effect in the case of basement apartments of what the law is intended to do - namely, to discourage short term rentals, which take away affordable housing. It’s a very shortsighted law. [/quote]
