Taxes and the Path to Legitimacy How to Save Your Vacation Rental Business

In this episode Pam Knudsen, Senior Director of Compliance Services at Avalara, gives us perspective on advocacy efforts across the country through the lens of lodging tax data.  
We've been hearing a lot this season about outright bans and a curious reluctance by cities to take the economic impact of vacation rentals into account when creating regulation.  
Pam shares a more nuanced, hopeful outlook as well as best practices for combining your economic contributions with good neighbor habits and turning them into real political leverage.
This season is brought to you by Track Hospitality Software and NoiseAware.
