Short-Term Renting (Like Airbnb) in New York City After Local Law 18; Which NYC Tenants Can Still Do Short-Term Renting Legally and How?

Oct 20, 2023

In Episode 16 we discuss Airbnb, and all kinds of Short-Term Renting in the wake of the controversial New York City Local Law 18, which recently went into effect.

Listen on Spotify, Apple, YouTube and all over the place!

Today’s pod will be longer than our typical 10 minutes because this is a big topic for New York City. We are going to be talking about the case brought by Airbnb against the Mayor’s Office of Special Enforcement that upheld Local Law 18.

In the Tenant Takeaway segment, we are going to talk about which NYC tenants can still do Short-Term Renting legally, and how they can do Short-Term Renting legally in NYC.
