What the record says
City licences: 224 active short-term rental licences in Renfrew-Collingwood in 2026. The City does not publish their addresses.
What it means
In Vancouver you can rent short term (Airbnb and the like) only the home you live in, with a City licence; a strata can ban it entirely. Do not count on short-term rental income from a second home.
What to do
If rental income matters, read the City’s short-term rental rules and ask about the rules for secondary suites.
