Legal considerations of phasing in LTR to traditional STRs?

[Cliff H.]

With the current trends of longer term guest stays in the era of staycations and work from home orders, what any tips, recommendations, or best practices you have found for longer term (30+ day) guest requests? Are you making your STRs available for this or simply declining inquiries and sticking with existing STRs? 

After reading over the horror story of the evicting a tenant from a STR, what are some of the legal and logistical gotchas those of you who have been at this for a while have seen in your neck of the woods by extending stays beyond 30 days in your state/region (ie: above CA laws defaulting stays over X days to traditional housing court)?

 As a traditional long term property manager I’m well-versed in the ins/outs of summary process and eviction, as well as the importance of screening longer term tenants far more than the “trusted reviews” and “government ID” world of AirBnB and HomeAway would indicate. 

Seeing a lot more requests for month+ stays here in NH and curious how/if others are handling?
