Concerned citizens of Virginia that are fighting to protect our rights & are growing state wide to support home sharing, STR's & property rights.

Fairfax County, VA will begin collecting transient occupancy tax through the @Airbnb app soon!

@pbpost @PBCountySheriff How is the homeowner to blame for this party? And not the party-throwers? Or the parents? Or the any of the party or alcohol vendors? Come on.

@jjsheedy Who are neighborhoods? Homeowners are actual people

[Citizens4STR @Citizens4STR]

@VRMAadvocacy Oh darn, I was just reading how many Hawaiian cities are great markets for homeowners to rent their homes out short-term!

[Citizens4STR @Citizens4STR]

Atlanta seems like a pretty forward-thinking, business-friendly area... hopefully they’ll keep that reputation and resist the urge to regulate, tax, or worse yet, BAN

[VRMA Advocacy @VRMAadvocacy]

Metro Atlanta communities are grappling with #ShortTermRental regulation. Easy to follow rules that do not ban non-owner occupied homes promote professional property management. These ordinances have the greatest compliance!

[Citizens4STR @Citizens4STR]

OMG Judge just asked if it was the county’s position of zero tolerance on STR’s! #basicallyyes #shorttermrentals There goes 6.6 million in host revenue. #airbnb

[Citizens4STR @Citizens4STR]

😂 County says that as soon as STR occurs building “converts” from residential to commercial. #ridiculous #raisedeyebrows #noitdoesnt #shorttermrentals

[Citizens4STR @Citizens4STR]

No commercial uses found. #airbnb #residentialuse #SupremeCourt #reverseBZAfinding #Dietrich doesn’t apply

[Citizens4STR @Citizens4STR]

Surprise! #countyobjects to much of the witness testimony. #objectionsustained #airbnb #trial #propertyrights #governmentremovesrights

[Citizens4STR @Citizens4STR]

Second witness! #countyobjects #shorttermrentals #airbnb #localgovernment #badpolicies

[Citizens4STR @Citizens4STR]

Witness testifies that they believe that homes are safer when occupied and better maintained. #airbnb #homestay #sharingeconomy #fightforpropertyrights

[Citizens4STR @Citizens4STR]

First witness! Fairfax County objected to the witness actually testifying because “it’s not relevant “. #overruled #badgovernment #nicetrybutNO

[Citizens4STR @Citizens4STR]

That’s ridiculous, Supreme Court is very clear that the courts DO NOT defer to ZA. #shorttermrentals #ridiculous #airbnb

[Citizens4STR @Citizens4STR]

Opening remarks by Fairfax County said court should defer to Zoning Administrator. #notbloodylikely #shorttermrentals #airbnb #grassrootsadvocacy
