Using OPP rentals as Airbnb

[Nicholas Baughman]

Has anyone looked for other people’s rentals and asked if they can use them as Airbnb’s or VRBO’s? I’ve heard this done before and am wondering if anyone has any experience in the San Diego area doing this. What’s the process? So I need a transient occupancy tax permit? Let’s chat.

I am trying to do this right now. I am running into problems with insurance. The landlord's insurance company has said they will drop him if they find out he is allowing a STR to be operated on the premises. We are having a heck of a time finding an insurance company who will allow for a mixed use situation where there is a STR, four LTR's and a commercial retail space in the same building.
