45 Vacation Rentals (e.g. Air BnB) Just as there are no land-use regulations about renting a house, there are no regulations for short-term rentals of a bedroom or casitas in Albuquerque. AirBnB and VRBO are online venues for short-term rentals. There are no limitations on the amount of time you can rent a property for from one night to multi-year leases. In short, using a property as a short-term rental is currently allowed, and that will not change in the proposed IDO. FAQ:
