Air BnB owners in BC could be looking at much larger fines for breaking short term rental rules very soon.
Currently Strata Corporation holds the right to pass bylaws that ban or restrict short term rentals, but the maximum fine is 200 dollars a week.
That fine is now set to jump to 1 thousand dollars per day on November 30th.
The new fines are intended to help protect those renting long term units from suffering the effects of wear and tear, and preventing security concerns.
