A new york city hall implemented new rules that will impact on the services of the app hostinglike the Airbnb. In this sense, the old rules prevented people from renting houses to guests for less than 30, with the only exception being the case where the host is present in the house.
As a result, the new regulations require homeowners to register with the city hall in order to qualify for short-term rent. Thus, the fees that are charged and relate to short-term stays can only be made following approval of the registration by the authorities.

As stated by the city hall, more than two guests are not allowed to stay in the premises. But what was seen in the hosting applications were several rental offers that violate the laws. In addition, the authorities said that the companies that own the apps do not act effectively to end these situations.
The city also said that renting these homes to tourists instead of New Yorkers makes life in the city more expensive and exacerbates the housing shortage. Airbnb, in turn, expressed itself through its global policy director regarding the scenario:
The city is sending a clear message to millions of potential visitors that they will now have fewer accommodation options when visiting New York: they are not welcome.
In any case, the company says that the number of ads on its platform should reduce a lot with the new rules. In addition, there is a fine of up to US$ 5 mil (BRL 25,000) for hosts who break the rules, while app companies will have to deal with a fine of up to US$ 1.500 (R$7,500) for transactions involving illegal rentals.
