We're still going to assess them and send that notice to them. We do still look at the Airbnb accounts too. The 524 is the big number difference. So if they are listed on Airbnb 3 different ways, because you can have one property that has 3 different Airbnb rentals on it, One time they might do one bedroom, one bathroom. The another time they might do two bedrooms with the kitchen, uh, you know, and then another one where they've turned the garage into another Airbnb.
