S.F. cracks down on Airbnb rentals
The money quote from the article:> "They thought it was OK to rent out on Airbnb because the company didn't tell them otherwise. Airbnb should be defending these tenants, or they should disclose to every person who rents in San Francisco that (short-term rentals are illegal) and tenants are being evicted."This is interesting.  If it is indeed illegal for any renter to use air bnb in San Francisco, then it seems logical to me that AirBnb should at the very least make the person renting out a place check a box that very clearly says1) they own their own place2) they have checked with their building, if its a condo or shared building, to ensure that its legal for them to rent out their place.
