Air BNB Problem

[W105]

what a crock of crap..lol we should allow this to cater to "Tourists" who need to vaca on the cheap...

keep it real here...homeowners are doing it because they need or want the extra $$....it's solely about the $$, nothing more..

It seems that those that oppose Air BNB really dont understand how it works.

The death of a teenager at a post-prom party held at an Airbnb rental property north of Toronto should be raising questions around safety and civic responsibility in an evolving industry, lawyers and police said Thursday as arrests were announced in the case.

I would imagine authorities are looking at this case as a "worst case scenario" of Airbnb's.

This nothing to do with air b&bs, and has everything to do with pre-meditated murder.

Police said two teens are now charged with first-degree murder,

It was planned and would have happened regardless of where the victim was before he was killed.

Kind of relates to the first post with the wild parties. In this case one rented a whole house for one night and had 400 people attend.

It's too bad people can't just be polite and considerate.

I see both sides.

I've used Air BnB several times. But I'm a married man traveling with his wife and we're polite, quiet and just use the place to sleep after a day of traveling, seeing the site and attending events. That's all it is to us. A bed and place to cook some food.


On the flip side, I own my own home. If I had inconsiderate d-bags coming and going at all times of day next door, because it was a short term rental with inconsiderate people... I'd absolutely hate it.


Sadly, the bad few ruin it for the good many. Much like everything in life
