Old Fort Regulations
Short-term rentals are explicitly permitted and not banned at the municipal level; Old Fort has no city-specific STR ordinance, so investors operate under the state Vacation Rental Act and standard county requirements without local caps or restrictive zoning. Compliance involves routine business and tax registrations (state sales tax 4.75%, county sales tax 2.5%, potential local lodging tax), building/safety code compliance, and insurance—moderate cost/complexity rather than an onerous burden.
