STR (Short term rentals) regulations condos
Hi everyone,
We are a business looking to invest in 6 properties in a condo located in Chicago for STR but it seems like there is a compliance for property managed building that prohibits it.
According to our research, we have not found a law that prohibits "vacation rentals" for less than 30 days "city-wide".
The property seems to meet the criterias for STR:
- Property is not included in the prohibited buildings
- Property is located on a ward which has no zoning restrictions
- Maximum 6 units is allowed for the property according to the laws
We are supposedly eligible through the chicago city quiz sharing housing eligibility.
Is there a Chicago city law that prohibits completely STR (less than 30 days) in condos more than 24+ units (except condo boards associations, HOA, etc..)?
Is there a law that prohibits STR for building that are managed through a property management company ? (It seems that it is an issue related to this and compliance)
Thank you.
