FTC Rule on Junk Fees for Short-Term Rentals

How will this impact short term condo rentals in Panama City Beach?

Under a new rule set to take effect in 2025, short-term rentals and hotels in Panama City Beach are required to advertise the full price of their services upfront.

This addresses a widespread issue where consumers often encounter unexpected additional fees. This practice is particularly prevalent among resort condominiums in Panama City Beach, where extra charges for parking and wristbands are commonly added during the check-in process. The upcoming changes aim to make pricing more transparent for consumers.
