SF Short Term Rental Violation Fines

[Kevin314]

Hi,

I was just fined by the San Francisco Short Term rental office for violating the short term rental laws.  Does anyone have any experience with this?  Looking for advice on what to do. The fine is over $14,000. 

Thanks,

@Kevin314  I wonder if you could get some help by going to the San Francisco Home Sharing Club website.  Go to Discuss and select Home Sharing Club and scroll do SF club.  If you don't see it on the page, scroll down to see all clubs.

I imagine you are not alone in this situation.

I was told by somoen at the office of short term rental that AIR B N B would help place future reservations.  Did you have anyluck with the compnay heklping or did you just cancel all your reservations?
