Toronto— 多伦多短租
Short-term Rental Policy in Toronto
自 2020 年 9 月 10 日起，多伦多市通过了最新短租牌照注册规定，短租房东必须遵守该规定。首先，短期租赁被重新定义为出租时间/天数少于28天的住宅物业。所有短期租赁经营者都必须在多伦多市政府申请牌照，并为所有出租物业缴纳 4% 的市政住宿税 (MAT)。要注册短租牌照，政府要求房东必须证明该物业是他们的主要住所。
- “您只能短租您的主要住所。
- 主要住所是您居住的住所以及您用于支付账单、身份证明、税收和保险的地址。
- 您只能拥有一个主要住所，也就是说您不能合法经营超过一个短租物业。
- 任何住房类型的房主或租户，例如房屋、公寓或共管公寓等，都有资格短租。
- 您应确保您的公寓管理处或您的房东允许短租。
- 如果您是出租独立卧室且主要住所中出租的独立卧室数量小于等于三，则每年短租天数不限。如果是出租整个房源，则此房源每年最多短租 180 晚。
- 您的房源必须位于居民区内。
- 如果您已经是商业民宿 (B&B) 经营者，您可以在使用已经颁发给您的“旅游住宅”牌照继续经营。
- 您可以在secondary suite或laneway suite中进行短期出租，只要该套房是您的主要住所。
- Secondary suite是一个独立的独立起居设施，提供食物准备和卫生设施供居住者专用。它位于较大的房屋内（例如，地下室公寓）。
- Laneway suite是一个独立的住宅单元，与较大的房屋位于同一地段，通常位于后院。Laneway suite必须紧邻公共巷道。
- 如果您居住在房屋的主要部分，则不得单独短期出租laneway suite或secondary suite。”
- 如果您的房源已经上了保险，您应该了解经营短租对保险的营销。您不妨向您的保险公司咨询您的保险产品是否支持短期租赁。
- 如果您与其他人住在同一个家中（例如，作为两个租户），那么您们每个人都可以这个住宅注册为您的短期租赁，只要该家是您的主要住所。
- 如果您的整个房屋每年出租超过 180 晚，那么您家中的每个租户都可能被认为违反了短租规定。”
2022 年3月10日的报道，多伦多市许可与标准部门(MLS)负责人表示，该市已经加强了短期租赁许可规定，规定要求房主不能直接把次卧进行短租，只有住在主卧的长租人，才有权把其他房间短租出去，也就是说只有二房东有找短租室友的决定权。根据章程，如果是带有厨房和浴室的独立单元，房主不能将地下室和次卧短期出租出去，只有房间的租客，也就是该房子目前的居住人，才能把房子短租出去。2021年有 105 项与短期租赁条例有关的诉讼。其中14起是因为没有执照就经营短期租赁的公司或房东。目前， Airbnb 和 Bookings.com 是多伦多唯二的两个持牌短期租赁平台。
