re: Most Changed Neighborhoods: Gentrification in NOLA

Gentrification by its simplest definition is a joke. But what’s an actual epidemic nationally, and in this case New Orleans is Air BNB culture. Out of state LLCs are buying up real estate by the masses and pricing out everyone but the upper class. It’s fine when industry brings skilled labor which brings money which brings improvement. This forces out only those that are too lazy and unskilled to compete. But what’s happening now is forcing out middle class and student, which without the actual economy of places like Austin and Nashville, is just going to leave New Orleans a gigantic bachelorette destination with no actual labor force.
The hot new apps of the last 5-10 years mostly just enable young women to live gilded lives of impossible promiscuity: Tinder, Uber, AirBnB... even those Redbox things succeed largely because hot chicks don't want to ask some doting nerd to hook up their Rokus or whatever.

Great example why there was a rule about drunk shiposting

If I were drunk I'd be doing something more enjoyable than explaining AirBnB to you.

Im just wondering the relation of promiscuity, nerds, roku, and AirBnB

I wish it did. Maybe I would have some action down my street.

I live in a neighborhood with a lot of those rentals and it’s mostly elderly white women from the Midwest/northeast

Best thing nola has done was put restrictions on Air BnB’s.
Posted on 12/19/19 at 7:17 pm to tgrbaitn08
Missed an opportunity to tax the shite out of them.
There are no real restrictions.

They raised taxes and owners of Air BnB’s must hold a homestead exemption
That was a start to get rid of a few in my neighborhood

Who is enforcing the rules?
That tax increase was a joke. It applies only to those holding permits.

Well like anything else in this city, who’s doing what?
The new ordinance requires vacation rental owners in residential neighborhoods to have a “homestead exemption,” meaning that they live there and claim the property as their primary residence.
Under the new rules, short-term rentals may take up no more than 25 percent of commercial or mixed-use property. However, owners with commercial licenses that are granted by December 1 will be able to continue operating such units even if they exceed the new 25 percent cap, under the city’s “legal conforming use” law. This allows businesses to continue doing business after zoning changes, as long as there is no more than a six-month break in operations.
There will be no such grandfathering for residential licenses if operators do not have a homestead exemption.
The new rules allow owners to operate up to three vacation rental units on properties with homestead exemptions. Short-term rentals will remain illegal in most of the French Quarter, and a new ban will be placed on vacation rentals in the Garden District.

A 7% tax isn’t a joke IMO

Yes. Well aware if the ordinance.
New Orleans hotel tax is 16%
No one is enforcing the STRs. There were three people supposedly earmarked, but I don't think that is going to happen now.

So you’re just arguing with me just to argue?
Like always?

You take it as an argument because I am on the opposite side of you. Merely stating facts. There is nothing in place to enforce the new ordinance.
Posted on 12/19/19 at 7:42 pm to fightin tigers
You said
I’m just stating facts as well
Just because they aren’t enforcing them doesn’t mean they aren’t in place

They are being taxed at half the rate of their competitors.
Should have allowed for many more STRs and controlled the volume with taxes. Allow tax break for those holding homestead exemptions. Tax based on occupancy.
