If the owner doesn’t live on site, it’s not a BNB. It’s a hotel. And it should be taxed, zoned, and regulated as such.
And if it doesn’t come with a communal breakfast
Changing the zoning of one or a couple of properties singularly I’m not sure is doable and I’m saying that as a surveying associate. I might be wrong; there were parts of cadastral law my junior degree didn’t cover.
But you’re spot on, that makes no difference really to the point you’re making. They’re businesses, not private dwellings any more and should be taxed appropriately.
Kind of my point. Neighborhoods that aren’t zoned for hotels shouldn’t have hotels in them. Companies are buying up residential homes and basically turning them into hotels without following any of the existing zoning laws.
Why would it be one or a couple of properties? This is hundreds of thousands.
