Challenging to Investors
Allowed but constrained: 400-permit cap in unincorporated Taos County and 120 in the Town, strong zoning prohibitions (e.g., historic district), and active enforcement via hotline/complaints. Multi-jurisdiction rules add cost and compliance complexity; the Village’s lodgers’ tax-only system is more accessible.
