Quick Question Regarding Short-Term Rentals in One or Two Family NYC Homes

[Aron1902]

I am a homeowner here in Brooklyn of a legal two-family townhouse. My understanding is that the laws in NYC make it illegal for Air B&B hosts who reside in Class A multiple dwellings -- buildings designed for three or more families -- to list their apartment for rentals of less than 30 days. Does anyone know if this also pertains to owners like myself, who have stand-alone single or two-family residences? Thanks in advance for any insight here.

you can’t do that airbnb must withdraw the full monthly amount from the visitors

[Ergun2]

it is legal since you are short term host for house not the apt. That ruke applies for apt not the house

Hello everyone,

I have been reading all these inputs here. we recently bought a 2-family home in Queens we occupy the entire house.

1st family home upstairs

3rd floor where we sleep (2 bedrooms & full bathroom)

2nd floor where we have open space (kitchen, dining room & living room with a half bathroom), here there is also a bedroom in the back with a full in-suite bathroom intended for Airbnb STR

2nd family home downstairs

1st floor we have a big family room, small kitchen (used for gatherings) with a full bathroom and in the back also a bedroom with a full in-suite bathroom intended for Airbnb STR 

 Basement we have another bedroom, full bathroom, small kitchen, laundry room and a storage room.

Anybody knows if I will comply with OSE regulation by having the 2 Airbnb STR bedrooms on the 1st & 2nd floors?

Thanks.
