Code enforcement letter

Code enforcement letter

Have anyone in our group have a listing in Fountain Valley city and receive a code enforcement notice letter telling that we can’t list entire house on airbnb.
They keep sending me notice letter in the mail and today the code enforcement officer came to my house drop off his business card at the door and tell me to call him..

I had a similar situation. However, I hired an attorney to handle the matter in municipal court. He worked on a fee-only basis, focusing on penalties. Do not contact the official yet until the court has made a decision.

It may be that Fountain Valley allows listing for 30+ days, but some cities require you to Home Share (not entire home) for bookings 30+ days? This is where you would only rent a room in a home that is your primary residence. You would have to determine if the city requires 30+ day stays as a home share only and not the entire home.
