More than 6 million residential properties are currently listed online for vacation rentals in more than 191 countries, but more than 50% of these listings are deemed illegal because they do not adhere to government regulations. This is usually because most hosts are unaware of the various rules that are necessary to keep listings compliant.To fill the knowledge gap and protect hosts from non-compliance fines and other penalties, lodge compliance provides a checklist of the regulations, requirements, and restrictions that apply to rentals in consideration of the property's location, features, and guest types.
