Airbnb tenant refuses to leave after staying in Brentwood home 17 months rent-free
A Brentwood homeowner is facing a nightmare after an Airbnb tenant moved in and has refused to leave for more than a year.
A Brentwood homeowner has been unable to evict an Airbnb tenant who won't leave or pay rent.
Okay. So this person doesn't have the permits to even rent out the house. Makes a profit off of the rent. Didn't repair the house.
Get fucked.
Airbnb is truly the evil outlier of late stage capitalism and the housing crisis.
91Airbnbs were great before everyone thought their shed was worth a hotel price. It was convenient and pleasant as an alternative but now it is the mainstream it is painful.
36airbnb's were never great. couchsurfing was. airbnb always was a way to save on taxes for renting out actual bed&breakfast rooms. it was clear from the start, that airbnb led to empty houses, that people couldn't afford the horrendous prices and had to move out. that big landlords would rent out individual rooms for double their worth.... i don't think the airbnb business model was ever "great" except for landlords

Airbnb provides a service that I like. It's gone downhill for sure but it is convenient.
The solution isn't to nuke Airbnb and put Chesko up against the wall. It's to regulate the fuck out of Airbnb like they do in New York. In my city (not NY) the taxes on Airbnb profits are 50%, you need a permit, and you have heavy restrictions on the duration of the stay. This is the way.
19It was Airbnb, but because of repairs he agreed to extend her stay beyond the reservation which is why she is now being considered a tenant.
The is their guest house. The owner's family lives on the property.
There are many far more impactful examples of late stage capitalism than a Airbnb renter squatting in some family's backyard
14Your last statement is false. Institutional real estate investors particularly big SFR holds that title
3Sounds like he tried to make a compromise and let her extend her stay. She on the otherhand abused that spirit of compromise and is trying to extort 100k. Also it's not the first time doing this
It's one thing to point to people who work hard and still get fucked over. There are many cases like that. This is not one.
2It's a convenient service that is in some places better or cheaper than hotels. It helps me make extra income after I added some ADUs to my property. I think it's great.

How is a AirBnB "guest" a tenant at all? WTF? Think about hotels: What would a hotel do, if you overstayed? They'd lock you out and flip you the bird.
How is it not possible to just call the police because of trespassing?
42In my area, it's about the length of stay. That's why hotels won't let you stay for 30 consecutive days.
28Some extended stay style hotels will actually check you out of the room and create a new reservation once you hit 30 days so that, on paper, you never go past the 30 day mark.

Based af. Abolish rent
19So when I went away to university for 3 years, of which I spent 2 months each summer back with my parents, I should have bought a house while I was there, and then sold it once I was done with my studies?
Or is renting sometimes a useful and convenient system?
-2lol and what I should just let people stay in my property for free? Get real.
-4I think what they (poorly) meant was that there shouldn't be individuals/entities that own multiple houses, to give everyone/more people the chance to own homes. There is a serious housing shortage because a lot of people and companies buy multiple homes. Some use it as basically a form of money (notably the Chinese) and others use it as a form of income (Individuals/entities that own 10 or more affordable/family homes and rent it out. Airbnb was/is a huge contributer to this issue)
As a rule, people today cannot buy homes and rent is a major reason why. In most places rent is over 60% of the average paycheck. How are you supposed to afford a house? You won't even get accepted for a mortgage with the average paycheck. This issue has a lot of consequences, suchas the birthrate is falling at an exponential rate. It's barely at the replacement level, and in some places, below. And the trend is continuing.
28unless you're living there or otherwise using the place, it shouldn't be 'your property'.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- In Brentwood's hillsides sits a community eye level with the Getty Center, whose neighbors include LeBron James and singer Fergie.
Repairs the guest house needed four months into her visit caused the initial animosity, which led Jovanovic to extend Hirschhorn's stay beyond her Airbnb reservation.
And the guest house itself doesn't have the right permits, so Jovanovic needs to find a legal reason to evict her, which he has yet to do successfully.
Jovanovic told Eyewitness News his hope in going public with his story is to help prevent others from facing a similar problem.
But during the Getty Center fire in 2019, he and his family were forced to move out - and some of his neighbors lost their homes.
Hirschhorn's attorney told The Los Angeles Times Jovanovic has harassed her and is suing for intentional infliction of emotional distress, among other things.
The original article contains 453 words, the summary contains 148 words. Saved 67%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
9It begins!
7It began over two centuries ago comrade. It just keeps getting derailed by authoritarians that honestly believe that their ego is more important than The Revolution. We don't need a leader, at least not as a government position. We need a council that any member can be removed through the electoral process, so that no single person can amass power to the point of enabling corruption, and all of the oppressed proletariat can finally progress into "The oppression of the Proletariat," as Marx put it. Once a single civilization manages to democratically enforce "The Proletatiat's Will," we will see the first truly communist civilization that has existed since we destroyed The Six Nations.
They had a different form of communistic society that had lasted for at least 15,000 years. Archaeologists have found a lot of evidence that is 15,000 years old, China is a youngling to this civilization. The Six Nations claim they have been around for 25,000 years, with a stable government and society the entire time. There's some archaeological evidence that would support this claim, found somewhat recently in San Diego that proves that the common ancestor of all humans but not apes was here 250,000 years ago, but there's not a lot of conclusive evidence that we have found in the Northeastern US and Southeastern Canada, that dates back further than around 15,000 to 16,000 years.
Either way, China wishes it was "The Oldest and longest lived civilization ever." They are at least 3 times younger, if not 5 times younger than a civilization that isn't perfect by any means, but they provided stability by ensuring that "no law could/may be passed that didn't/doesn't directly benefit all of the children of the next 7 generations."

5So because they were here first, and stole all the land from the people, by "buying it" for trillionths of pennies on the dollar, we should respect their theft because they did it first?
No. The Commons must be respected, or The State must provide affordable housing such that a citizen pays a fixed percentage of their monthly income. Said fixed percentage should be between 2% as is the case in Estonia and Latvia, or as high as 5%, as is the case in multiple Nordic and Eastern European countries.
Meanwhile the rich, and corporations, aren't allowed to make dynasties by purchasing land and intellectual property rights in perpetuity. You have never had an original idea, and neither have I. The vast majority of people don't. All ideas must enter the public domain within 30 years.
The real problem you have is that the government under Clinton outlawed the government from owning more than a specific dollar amount of residential property. Meanwhile, the federal government owns more than 1/3 of the land in the country, and could totally create housing for those "undesirable tenants" that you can't leech off of.
Landleeches must be regulated. You fuckers caused the housing shortage in every modern developed country in the world.
