Zoning By-Laws (aka. why a 30-day minimum)
We get calls frequently asking why the minimum length of stay has to be 30 days. Most people assume it’s a financial reason but really, it’s because of section 10.21.6 of the zoning by-laws:
“No person shall use or permit to be used any dwelling unit for a period of less than one month unless such unit forms part of a hotel or is used for bed and breakfast accommodation.”
And since the units we rent are full size suites (legally called a dwelling) and not a hotel or a room in a bed and breakfast we have to comply with this by-law.
