No se votará el proyecto de ley de Nueva York para flexibilizar la normativa sobre alquileres a corto plazo

Key Points

• A bill to ease short-term rental restrictions for NYC homeowners will not advance in 2025, facing opposition from city officials and the hotel industry.
• The proposed legislation, backed by Airbnb and homeowners, would have allowed more guests and locked bedroom doors in one- and two-family homes.
• Current laws continue to restrict short-term rentals, with Airbnb's NYC business significantly declining after the 2023 host registration law took effect.

Summary

A bill before the New York City Council that would have relaxed short-term rental rules for homeowners of one- and two-family homes will not be voted on in 2025, as the housing committee declined to move it forward. The legislation, supported by Airbnb and homeowners groups but opposed by the hotel industry and likely the incoming mayor, would have expanded the number of adult guests and allowed locked bedroom doors. Current city and state laws continue to restrict short-term rentals, and Airbnb's business has suffered since the implementation of stricter registration laws in 2023.
