Crackdown Short-Term Rentals Likely Coming to Unincorporated L.A. County
Short-term rentals in unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County will be restricted to hosts who are renting out their primary residence, under a proposal that gained preliminary approval from the County Board of Supervisors on March 19. The proposed ordinance, five years in the making, would prohibit hosts from listing second homes, guesthouses, accessory dwelling units, or investment properties. The supervisors, who unanimously passed the ordinance, must vote on it one more time, likely early next month, before it becomes law. Under the proposed ordinance, hosts in unincorporated areas would have to register with the county and pay an annual fee of $914. A property could be rented for no more than 30 consecutive days at a time. And “corporate hosts” who rent out multiple properties would have to pull their listings.
