Doing it yourself

Hosting is a second job

The listing is the easy part. A week of running it in Scarborough looks more like this.

  1. 11:40 pm

    A guest cannot find the key. Your phone is the front desk.

  2. 6:15 am

    Checkout at eleven, the next guests at three, and the cleaner has cancelled.

  3. Tuesday

    The long weekend is priced like any other night. Somebody books it in an hour.

  4. Thursday

    Airbnb and Booking.com both took the same Saturday.

  5. Saturday

    Out of toilet paper, coffee and clean towels, in that order.

  6. Month end

    Which booking paid what, after whose fees, and what is actually left?

Three things stay in your name

  • The city's registration or licence

    It is issued to you, for your home. We go through what your city asks for with you.

  • Insurance

    Your policy has to cover paying guests. Ask your insurer before the first one arrives.

  • Your tax return

    The income is yours. Your monthly statement gives you or your accountant the numbers.

The paperwork

What the city asks for

The licence, the fee and the tax, in plain words, with the page each comes from.

City of Toronto (Scarborough is part of it)

A City registration, renewed every year, and a 6% accommodation tax.

  • Registration

    You register the home with the City. The fee was $390 in 2026 and is renewed every year.

  • How long it takes

    The City says processing can take more than 30 days, so it is worth starting early.

  • Accommodation tax

    6% on short stays, charged to the guest. A booking site that has an agreement with the City can collect it for you.

  • Condos

    Your building has its own rules too. Have them to hand when we talk.

Which homes qualify, and for how many nights, depends on the home and how you use it. We go through that with you for your address.
