It is important to check with your insurer that they cover “Short Term Rentals” as this type of sideline business changes the risk to the insurer significantly, so understandably some insurers will not protect this risk.

When the insurer rates how much they are going to charge you for your home insurance, they look at the risk for fire, storm, the construction of the building, and factor in the risk of you having visitors socially and the associated risk of is a visitor possibly tripping and potentially a law suit from such events. Generally, this is low risk.
When you start having visitors you don’t know, visiting much more often than a normal home, the risk of strangers trashing your home, the risk of something failing and these visitors may want to sue you, this really is opening you up to potential exposure more like a business than just a home insurance policy.
