A years-long effort to regulate short-term home rentals across the U.S. is likely to intensify in 2019 after crackdowns in popular tourist destinations such as Washington, D.C., and New York City.

Along with San Francisco, Chicago and New Orleans, the cities have also implemented measures to limit the types of property that can be rented through services such as Airbnb and HomeAway, restrict the duration of stays and require residents who use the platforms to disclose rental information to local governments. Supporters of the bills — including the lodging industry and local lawmakers hearing complaints from voters about disruptions in their apartment buildings and neighborhoods — charge that some home-owners are essentially operating illegal hotels.
