San Diego's first-ever vacation rental licenses have fallen short of a new city-imposed limit, meaning that a planned lottery will no longer be necessary. JacobAere says the one exception is Mission Beach.
Mission Beach, which has a separate cap for licenses, received more applications than its individual limit of 1,100 licenses. Applicants for that community will learn the outcome of their lottery no later than Dec. 16., an organization that opposes short-term rentals in residential neighborhoods, suspects that the low number of overall applicants means that some people may not be following the new regulations.
Some estimates suggest the city of San Diego had up to 16,000 short-term vacation rentals, so the relative lack of applications is a striking contrast, Becker said. “The reason why you wouldn't apply is if you were scared you wouldn't get a license, or if you moved back into the home — or you decided to long-term rent it, or you didn't want to pay the $1,000 fee,” Becker said.
