Renters

One who hires from the owner the right to use real property. Consideration (that is, the charge for the hire of the property) may be cash or a cash equivalent, or, in some circumstances, services rendered (“labor-for-rent”). Depending on the provisions of local ordinance and/or the association’s governing documents, a renter may have the right to rent less than the entire dwelling from the landlord. If the hire is for less than a 30-day period, the owner of the dwelling may be liable to the municipality in which the dwelling is located for a “transient occupancy tax.”
