Injured at Property Managed by Rabbu – Can I Sue?
Did you have an accident while staying at an Airbnb rental managed by Rabbu.com? Was a member of your family injured at a Rabbu vacation rental due to a hazardous condition? Sadly, these incidents are very common at short-term rentals, even those that are taken care of by a property management company.
Airbnb rental companies are a relatively new industry, but it makes sense considering the popularity of cottages, villas, themed houses, and other unique accommodations. For the traveler, staying at an Airbnb is a welcome change from a traditional hotel. For the owner of the property, it’s a great source of extra income.
However, managing these properties, updating listings, collecting payments, cleaning up after each guest, etc., is a lot of work for many of these owners. These people rely on Rabbu and other vacation rental management companies to handle the day to day tasks associated with renting out an Airbnb.
This arrangement sounds ideal in theory, and even for the renter, it’s nice to have access to a property manager that can be reached 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. But there’s one issue no one thinks about until it’s late: who is responsible if someone is hurt in an accident at a property managed by Rabbu?
In this article, we will cover various issues that have to do with your rights if you or your loved one suffered injuries at a Rabbbu.com rental. Possible accidents at a vacation rental property include:
- Slip and fall / trip and fall
- Struck by falling object
- Assault and battery (including sexual assault)
- Broken steps / sidewalk
- Collapsing stairs, deck or balcony
- Roof or ceiling collapse

Yes, you can sue Rabbu or any other property management company if they breached their duty of care to you as a tenant at a short-term rental. But these lawsuits are very complicated, due to the fact that there are two parties that may be liable for accidents on the property.
Usually, when you are renting a property, it’s the landlord that’s responsible if unsafe conditions cause you to be injured. The problem here is that the owner has hired a company to manage the property on their behalf. However, the duties and responsibilities assumed by Rabbu will depend on the contract they sign with the owner. And no matter what, an owner always bears some degree of liability for injuries to their tenants under the law of premises liability. That’s why both sides are required to have insurance that covers accidents and property damage. But which party is responsible for compensating you depends on many details that are specific to your case.
In short, there is a lot to discuss and investigate when it comes to lawsuits for accidents at a vacation rental. To ensure that you receive every penny you deserve from an Airbnb management company lawsuit, contact our office as soon as possible.
What is the Average Value of a Rabbu.com Injury Claim?Personal injury lawsuits against Rabbu are worth $150,000 to $1,500,000 for serious injuries that require multiple, long-term treatment. For severe injuries, like permanent disability, a Rabbu accident injury case may be worth $5,000,000 to $10,000,000. Conversely, those with relatively minor health issues may receive $50,000 or less from a Rabbu accident claim.
Higher settlements are not always associated with physical injuries, by the way. For example, those who are sexually assaulted due to inadequate security may receive $1,500,000 to $5,000,000, even if all or most of their injuries are psychological in nature. This is particularly true with child sexual assault lawsuits, which may be settled for as much as $10,000,000.
How Long will it Take to Settle an Airbnb Management Company Lawsuit?It takes 6 to 12 months on average to settle an accident claim with Rabbu, though the actual amount of time can vary from a few weeks to over 2 years. It’s possible to reach a settlement within 4 to 6 months if there are no permanent health issues, but lawsuits for severe injuries will probably take 1 to 3 years. The longest timelines are associated with cases that go to trial. But it’s worth nothing that less than 5% of cases are brought before a judge and jury. Thus, it’s more than likely that we can reach a settlement with Rabbu, but getting to this point can take anywhere from 6 to 24 months.
If you are injured at a vacation rental managed by Rabbu.com, you will need to file a lawsuit no later than 2 years from the incident date. However, there are situations where the statute of limitations can be tolled. For example, let’s say you are diagnosed with a permanent disability years after you slipped and fell down at an Airbnb rental. Even if you are past the statute of limitations, you have 1 year from the discovery of a delayed injury to sue Rabbu for monetary damages.
Exceptions also exist for cases of sexual assault. Adults have 10 years from the date of assault to file a lawsuit, while minors have 22 years following their 18th birthday to sue for childhood sexual assault. For child victims, they can also file a lawsuit within 5 years of an injury (emotional or physical) to file a sexual abuse lawsuit, no matter how old they are.
Considering the complications that are involved, it’s best to verify how much time you have for a lawsuit with a Rabbu rental property lawsuit attorney.
