When I was on a condpo board, unit leasing was a constant problem. Despite a six month minimum , owners would use Air BnB and VRBO to get multiples of market rent. The board would monitor our complex on the internet for advertising.

The parade of strangers rolling suitcases and cleaning service company employees in their uniform was too much.

When the expectation of strangers is no longer limited, the residence becomes a hotel suite, not a home.

I know of a woman who was able to live in a decent rent controlled apartment for 400 dollars a month or some crazy number and the owner had no recourse at all to raise the rent or anything. She finally died in December and the owner was thrilled....I know that sounds awful but when you are basically bankrupting the owners what can you do.
