How One Property Manager Took on Airbnb and Won with Ginger Harrelson of Beachball Properties

Episode notes

Ginger Harrelson, co-owner and chief legal officer of Beachball Properties, joins host Lynell Gordon for a conversation that starts with a $5,000 refund issued without a phone call and ends with a state senate bill stopped in its tracks. This episode traces one complete arc: how an Airbnb-backed bill was discovered moving through the Alabama legislature, what merchant of record law means and why Airbnb is not complying with it, and how collective action by a coalition of professional property managers made all the difference.
