AirBnB in Milwaukee?

[Adam Kozuch]

Hey MKE BP,

Does anyone have experience doing AirBnB or VRBO in Milwaukee? It's (something shiny!) an area I have never really investigated and it sounds like you would need to have a Bed and Breakfast permit.

DHS 197.03 (Section 3)

 "Bed and breakfast establishment" means any place of lodging that provides 8 or fewer rooms for rent to no more than a total of 20 tourists or other transients for more than 10 nights in a 12-month period, is the owner's personal residence, is occupied by the owner at the time of rental, and in which the only meal served to guests is breakfast.

Thanks,

@Adam Kozuch we do Airbnb at our personal home and have had great luck. In our city it is not allowed, however we were grandfathered in before they changed the zoning regulations. I think may cities are starting to **** folks down, but as you may have heard in the news other cities are getting push back from the Airbnb "community". 

I would totally recommend Airbnb as both a host and a guest!
