Political Climate for Short-Term Rentals Avila Beach CA

Stephen Wyer
Posted

Hi all,

Recently some friends of mine and I were discussing prospects for looking into the vacation rental market in Avila Beach, given that it's a great area, high volume of tourists (even during COVID), and the market for vacation rentals as a whole seems to have stayed steady despite the recession. However, I've been warned that investing in vacation rentals can prove disastrous if the politics of the region are unfavorable.
That is, in certain areas in California (Coronado I've heard for instance) the city has essentially banned rentals for under 30 days, effectively destroying the Air B N B and vacation rental market there.
Does anyone know if there's any such push in the Avila/SLO area by local politicians or the community? Kind of want to know before I seriously consider investing there. 
Thanks!
