I have been renting reservations on airbnb and vrbo since the fall of 2016. VRBO actually solicited me to rent my timeshare reservations. I thought VRBO only took full time ownership, but that has changed.
Here is the problem. In the spring I started to get notification from Airbnb that I had to get a permit from the city to rent my properties. Of course the forms are all for full time ownership properties. I contacted Airbnb and got no help. Airbnb did send me the link for the city government site. I email the man in charge and explained my situation of both properties being Wyndham Timeshares. With a few back and forth emails with him contacting legal. He told me I had to get some type of confirmation from Wyndham that I own contracts and have the right to rent my points.
Does anyone have any suggestions what department in Wyndham I would even call to figure this out?
I understand this is about revenue for New Orleans, but isn't Wyndham paying all the taxes on the resorts. BTW I do pay extra taxes through the rental site for sales tax.
Anyone else ran into this problem?
Thanks for any useful information or help.
