Challenging to Investors
STRs are technically allowed but constrained by limited zones, an owner‑presence requirement, a hard 30‑day maximum stay with additional period‑of‑stay limits, one‑structure per parcel, annual inspections, and dual city–county licensing with notarizations and non‑prorated fees—creating a burdensome compliance environment that deters investment.
