Yes, I did and am still chuckling. But I think I get it now. With all the incorrect and inaccurate statements and the clearly one-sided “boo-hoo I cannot rent out my apartment illegally anymore” stuff, tThis likely a troll. I will wind it up with this post I think.

Would love to see the database that shows most HOAs and terms. My own direct experience shows subleasing whether yay or nay is a standard clause.

Yeah, mine is pretty current too. ;-) And as far as easy, no. Not easy. But not hard either. Just a process.

Many condos in Japan are not lived in by the owner and leasing agreements can be created. These would be subject to the rules in the HOA guidelines. So yes, both actually.

If they were enforceable, there would be no need for the new legislation the government is trying to jam down the public's throat. E.g if a rental agreement does not confirm to the terms of the fixed term lease law, it doesn't matter what the agreement says about termination, it's unenforceable. And for that matter as far as I'm aware the legality of the termination provisions in fixed terms leases have not been fully adjudicated.
Probably best not to put that misleading info out there. Lease agreements, when written within the parameters of the law, are entirely enforceable.

Is that what rental companies do? Hmmm…. Have not heard of that. As for providing examples, no, those are between the resident, the landlord and the courts. To infer that they do not exist is absurd.
As has been stated upthread, if one opts for AirBnB, a reputable and well-known choice of residences will be wise.
