Generally Investor friendly
STRs are permitted in R-1/R-2/R-3 with multi-step permitting and fees (~$500–1,500 setup; $800–1,200 annual), county inspections, and state/county taxes (9–12%). No meaningful caps, but setbacks, flood limits, and a 1.5-mile city review add friction. Strict county enforcement and ongoing compliance heighten risk but remain manageable for investors.
