H1537 — Vacation Rentals

Bill H1537 was filed to authorize local governments to establish vacation rental registration programs and to impose requirements on advertising platforms regarding vacation rental listings.

The bill requires advertising platforms to mandate that persons placing vacation rental advertisements include specified information in listings, remove booking capability from non-compliant listings, and provide the Department of Business and Professional Regulation a list of all vacation rentals advertised on their platforms. The bill also requires advertising platforms to adopt antidiscrimination policies and directs the division to create and maintain a vacation rental information system.

Local governments, advertising platforms, and persons advertising vacation rentals.

As of March 5, 2024, the bill was laid on table after favorable committee reports; no effective date enacted.
