«Breaking News» How tenant turned taxpayer home into a £60-per-night business

A housing association tenant illegally sub-let her home on Airbnb more than 100 times in an area with a chronic housing shortage.

One guest who stayed in the home of Fatoumata Dao in Shepherd’s Bush, West London, even left a review stating he had been awoken by a council investigator and warning that the home was on the website illegally.

Ms Dao, who called herself Shelia Quest and Shelia Drame on the site, rented out two bedrooms in her £550,000 flat for £30 a night each.

An undercover reporter for The Mail on Sunday booked the room and established it was owned by Notting Hill Genesis housing association.

The listing for the home, which had been reviewed 119 times, said: ‘This will feel like home as you step through the front door.’

In the borough – Hammersmith and Fulham – there are about 3,000 people on the council’s housing register and it can take up to ten years to be offered a place. When questioned by the MoS, Ms Dao said: ‘It’s not something I do quite often. I can’t really talk now.’

Afterwards she took her listing off Airbnb.

A Notting Hill Genesis spokesman said: ‘We are aware of the situation. This case is being investigated.

‘We take illegal sub-letting very seriously. When incidents come to light we investigate and take action where necessary. We would invite anyone who suspects our property is being sub-let through Airbnb or similar services to contact us.’

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
