Short-term listings; defining terms; prohibiting certain short-term listings without consent; requiring consent from all owners; requiring suspension of certain listings. Effective date.

SB 1624 requires all co-owners of a property to provide written consent before a short-term rental listing (like Airbnb) can be activated or maintained. Short-term rental platforms must verify all owners' identities using public records, obtain documented consent from every owner, and suspend any listing immediately if one owner objects. Platforms face penalties up to $5,000 per violation for failing to comply, including not removing listings after an objection. The bill directly affects property owners with shared ownership and platforms that host short-term rentals, aiming to prevent unilateral listings without full owner agreement.
