Brief: The recent proposal by URA relating to home-stay rules, mainly its suggestion of a 90-day rental cap, as long as owners holding 80 per cent of the share value give the nod to a change in land use, is discussed in this piece. Of concern is that the bar is set high for owners who wish for their property to be eligible for homestays. Concerns from several sectors are highlighted here.
