Challenging to Investors
Falmouth Regulations
Allowed but moving toward a restrictive regime—pending Board of Health licensing, one-license-per-owner cap, bans on commercial events, and mandatory health/fire/building inspections with civil fines up to $5,000. High documentation burden, ownership restrictions (no corporate structures, no fractional/timeshare), and ongoing uncertainty while rules are finalized increase compliance risk and deter investment.
