Host responsibilities

Hosting on Among Our People Travel is a partnership — we handle the platform, and you take responsibility for hosting legally and safely where you live. Before you list, please make sure you understand and comply with:

• Local short-term rental laws, tourist licensing, and registration requirements in your city or region.
• Any permissions required from your landlord, building, homeowners' association, or co-owners.
• Applicable taxes on hosting income, including tourist / occupancy taxes where they apply.
• Health, safety, insurance, and accessibility requirements for guest accommodation in your jurisdiction.

No commission, ever. Among Our People doesn't take a cut from hosts or guests — the price you set is the price you receive, and the price your guest sees is the price they pay. That means you can price more competitively than on platforms that charge fees on both sides. It also means Among Our People isn't a party to any booking: we provide the platform that connects hosts and guests, but we can't be responsible if either side fails to meet the obligations above or doesn't treat the other with respect. That responsibility sits with the people involved — not with us.

Liability disclaimer. Among Our People provides the platform that connects hosts and guests. Among Our People is not responsible for a host's compliance with local laws, licensing, permits, taxes, or any other regulatory obligations that apply to hosting where you live. Among Our People is also not responsible for payments exchanged between hosts and guests, or for cancellations, refunds, or disputes relating to a booking — these are agreed and handled directly between the host and guest. Hosts list at their own risk and are solely responsible for meeting their local legal requirements. This page is general information, not legal advice — if you're unsure, please consult a qualified local professional before listing.
