Challenging to Investors
Lancaster Regulations
STRs are permitted but hinge on unclear zoning compliance without clear permitted zones; the city offers only a tax registration (not a permit) and requires paper filing with no e-payment. Lack of explicit caps, fees, or enforcement guidance forces investors to confirm zoning legality pre‑acquisition.
