My girlfriends cousin rents out his condo every weekend in Vancouver for the last year and a half to help pay his mortgage. He has not had a problem yet. He only rents to people that have used the service before and have good reviews from previous Airbnb "landlords". I don't think this owner did enough homework on who he was renting to. The renter is complete scum but these types of services have ways to gather information on renters past history with the service.
