Airbnb

A bill has been on Gov. Phil Murphy's desk since late June that would repeal the sales and accommodation taxes now charged on some short-term rentals.

A Senate panel voted to exempt Shore house bookings directly made by homeowners, without help from services like Airbnb, from new tax collection requirement.

In New Jersey and nationwide, women make up the lion's share of Airbnb hosts, according to data released this week.

Municipalities are moving to rein in short-term rentals, so proposed law would set the guidelines, including up to $250 a year to be a 'registered host.'

The police chief said nearly all of the city's properties up for grabs on home-sharing platforms present no issues at all, but there's always a couple outliers.

More than ever before, New Jersey residents this past summer used the online marketplace Airbnb to rent out their homes or spare rooms to guests.

Rather than exclude 'for rent by owner' rentals from taxes, revamped state guidance makes it harder to avoid. The Legislature now may step in.

Guidance from the state had indicated short-term, owner-directed Shore home rentals would have to charge sales and occupancy taxes. That is being changed.

It’s not just the big tax increases in Gov. Phil Murphy’s budget that are stirring opposition. There's also proposed tax on e-cigs, among others.

A home-sharing company is becoming more popular in New Jersey.
