One property. Five separate checks.
A listing can say "Airbnb allowed" and still miss a municipal, provincial, strata, safety, or paperwork restriction. Each decision stays separate so you see what is proven and what still needs confirmation.
Municipal zoning
Does the city permit short-term rental at this address, in this zone, for this type of home?
Provincial rules
Do principal-residence, registration, and provincial fee requirements apply?
Strata or landlord permission
Municipal eligibility does not override a building bylaw, lease, or owner-consent requirement.
Lawful dwelling and safety
The rental space, occupancy, alarms, fire plan, and operating setup may need separate evidence.
Documents and deadlines
The right proof must reach the right authority, in the right format, before its deadline.
