Then don't rent your house. This is a risk of rental properties.

Look, if you have a house in a tourist spot and you say "no parties!", you're not gonna make any money. And if the residents don't like said parties, they can rally together to make AirBNBs illegal in their area. That's how many (most?) touristy places are.



This is just pushing the externalities to the residents. It takes several months for airbnbs to get banned, and it's tough for smaller cities to get the bans enforced.

There must be a better answer than "pass a law so the american multinational does a better job at regulating its rentals"
