With 7500 new troops coming into Whiteman, the city council turning over and the new Dollar Tree distribution center it seems to be doing well there.

No inspection, you lose your rental license because of lack of inspection, and now you either operate your rental illegally or evict the tenant for refusing to let a government official in their house.And this was shot down by the Kansas City Missouri City council for many of these unknown questions and because tenants and landlords have been suing cities across the country for similar laws and winning. 

At the very least your insurance company could help with legal council if an issue were to arise.

I’m thinking of renting my primary residence (3200 sq ft, lake view in Bellevue Lake Heights) as future AirBnB.I’ve talked to many Washingtonians - we love our state but the unsustainable economic growth has build an anti-business city planning council and local government.

More and more local councils are curbing or eliminating the ability to rent short term

We also have the option to go back to the Town council and try to get the land approved for 5 Duplexes to up the doors to 10 instead of 5. 

I had to go with the sellers to a city council meeting for the conditional use permit, and about 10 minutes on the phone when I was going for the extention, for a total of about an hour and a half, and it has been a great investment.

@Wendy Vaidic Yes, they can unless you know people on the city council.

Please let me know if your need any council in this. 

While chatting with a friend today they brought my attention to discussions currently happening in the Oakland City Council that would be of interest to all of us with small multi-family properties in Oakland.
