Is a Bylaw forbidding owners to rent out their unit considered legal?

Your bylaws cannot prevent the renting of a unit but you can set out requirements to be followed such as a deposit to be paid by the owner to the Corporation and remedies for non-compliance of the bylaws and rules of the property. Tenants are obligated to abide by the bylaws and the rules of the property.

Another thing to remember is that the owners must notify the Board/management of the tenant(s) name and contact information within 20 days of occupancy as per the Act. Tenant(s) must sign a form that they have read and agree to abide by the bylaws.

The AirBNB is a concern; our bylaws, as advised & written by a qualified lawyer, forbid this practice. But the process described by Trudy A is valid; we follow that practice
