  • In short: Brisbane Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner says the permits will help put hundreds of homes back onto the rental market.


  • Apartments will also need body corporate and planning approval to become short-term accommodation.


  • What's next? The local law will need state government approval and will involve community consultation.





Brisbane landlords will soon need a council-approved permit before they can list their home for short-term accommodation, including Airbnb, the city's lord mayor has announced.

The new local law will target landlords who are turning their homes into "mini-hotels" amid an ongoing rental crisis.


Brisbane Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner says the permits will help put hundreds of homes back onto the rental market.


"[Council will] only issue a permit if they [landlords] have planning approvals in place, and if it's appropriate, and if it has the support of a body corporate," he said.
