Steve Nguyen runs two Airbnb units in a downtown Victoria apartment building, including one decorated and paying homage to the television show, “Friends”. He says he’s still reeling from the news he soon won't be able to operate it as a short-term rental since he doesn’t live there.
Ah, landlords. They truly labour harder than anyone else.
Some people do work hard. My aunt and uncle in law have an airbnb that they spent like 9 months renovating.
Not every landlord is a money hungry corporation.
My other uncle in law is only a landlord because he inherited the property.
If they truly cared about it, they’d admit it was a hotel, pay for the zoning change and pay their due taxes.
