Course Description

More and more owners are using their strata lots for short term rentals either directly through websites like AirBnb and VRBO. In addition, some owners rent their strata lots to companies who book short term rentals for the units. These arrangements raise lots of issues for strata corporations and their owners. In this seminar, we will discuss:
• How these short term rentals are arranged and managed
