Short-term rentals, the sharing economy, and tax

Clients renting out their properties need to know a few key rules.

As the sharing economy continues to grow, more people are capitalizing on the opportunity to rent their homes, other real property, or even extra rooms to travelers through Airbnb or similar services (sometimes called "peer-to-peer accommodation") for extra income. It's a win-win in many cases—travelers experience places they visit as a local resident would, and the owner makes money that would otherwise go to a hotel or motel (although the latter probably isn't too happy about it).
