On Sept. 5, the city began enforcing Local Law 18 rules that require licenses for short-term rental hosts, banned whole-home rentals, and limited guests to two per reservation. Local Law 18 also requires registration requests to be denied for buildings on a prohibited buildings list. To be placed on the list, building owners notify the mayor’s Office of Special Enforcement (OSE) that short-term rentals are not allowed in their buildings. The owners must certify that leases and other occupancy agreements for dwelling units within their buildings prohibit short-term rentals.
