This is somewhat of a grey area so as I scale this will probably not be something I will continue since it could be required again sometime in the future. http://tax.cchgroup.com/downloads/files/pdfs/legislation/repeal1099reporting.pdf

While every state & province has their own regulations, you need to comply with the legislation in Ohio.  

Well, I think there should be legislation passed to stop that, or if it's not legal, the codes should be enforced.

That said, this could all change very soon, as the Austin City Council is considering passing legislation that would effectively ban Type 2 STRs in Austin.

First, the GOP has control of only one house of Congress (alas) ... thus any legislation has two more major hurdles to clear before becoming effective (Senate and President).Given the above plus the fact that Congress just passed a "major" piece of banking legislation (however flawed), I have doubts that they would pass another *Major* piece in the next Congress.Ending the Fed would be a major piece of legislation.I think Benanke and the other Fed officials will catch more flak from Ron Paul but won't face any major challenges.

It is an example of the best kind of legislation that was an absolute Win Win for both tenants and landlords. 

Given the new legislation, I think others agree with me.

In our home jurisdiction the legislation is clear that arrears (rent and other amounts past due) must be paid in full to rescind a Notice to Vacate or and eviction order.In other places, were the legislation is less clear, we articulate in our lease how payments are applied and that all current and past due amounts must be paid in-full before we will consider rescinding a Notice to Vacate or halting the eviction process.We have yet to operate in a jurisdiction where the legislation states that a partial payment of arrears halts or quenches an eviction.

For those doing Short Sales,..you need to be armed with the CFPB (Consumer Financial Protection Agency's) legislation from December 2014 that makes the process much smoother.

The City Council is considering legislation that would be a massive gamechanger for Seattle real estate.
