Quote from @Daniel Amsalem: If you have an Airbnb in DC, Maryland, or Northern Virginia (NOVA) or want to, I'd ask you provide feedback to the City of Alexandria regarding their proposed regulations.Regulations: https://www.alexandriava.gov/sites/default/files/2024-08/sho...Feedback Form: https://www.research.net/r/AlexandriaVA-ShortTermRentalsAlexandria sets the example for all of DMV as the most permissible county/region. 

@David R Pustelnik sent you a DM to futher discuss one-on-one, please respond:)

The person worked for H&R Block, now works for TurboTax Live and is being honest about their skills: NOT QUALIFIED.

I can't tell the future, I just will tell you markets behave when supply and demand are close(r) to be met.

Quote from @James R.: Has anyone else submitted receipts to Airbnb for damages, let's say for $200 and they come back and say that they approved reimbursement for $150?
