Challenging to Investors
STRs are technically allowed but severely constrained: a 135-permit cap with a moratorium, only limited exceptions, and a lottery/lapse-only path for new permits. Fees are high ($1,000–$2,300) and annual compliance is strict, while prohibited zones and cumbersome reporting add operational risk for new entrants.
