Default Two sides to consider

While I understand the sentiment against short term rentals and the desire for more regulation, it's important to acknowledge that there is another side of the coin.

As a real-life example, consider an elderly couple who bought their lake house in the 1950s but aren't necessarily wealthy. Now, the widow requires constant nursing care which can be incredibly expensive. The income generated from a short term rental is actually paying for her care and helping to keep the house in the family. This may be their only option to keep the property and retire there in the future.

It's important to consider the individual circumstances and potential benefits before dismissing short term rentals altogether.
