What makes you think they are going to crack down hard on the 90-night rule?

People with money complaining their neighbor is short term renting. Politics basically. You also have to realize that a high percentage of short term renters are looking to skim and not report rentals, not pay their taxes.

The best idea truly is to allow it by neighborhood, district, etc. As said, short term renting does drive up the prices in general. But it also makes areas less stable, especially traditional nice residential areas. Someone will take a 4000 sq ft house and turn it into 4-5 short term rentals. That can hurt an entire city block as far as resale value, as many people now don't want to live next to that.
