Need agent experienced in STR's - Carlsbad, CA

[Matt Morgan]

Hey guys, I'm looking to purchase a second home / AirBnb in the North County area of San Diego, more than likely in Carlsbad.

I'm looking for an agent that has experience with short term rentals in that area and can help educate me on numbers to expect with a short term rental and also represent me on the purchase. 

Thanks in advance.

@Matt Morgan Hey Matt! Sounds like a great plan. There is one thing you may or may not be aware of when it comes to STR in San Diego county. Starting July 1, 2022, any STR, whether whole house or partial, will be subject to a Short Term Residential Occupancy Tax and Permit. The one downside is that outside of Mission Beach, San Diego, there will be a 1% limit for each neighborhood when it comes to permitting. Those in good standing with their neighbors and the city will have first priority.

I think it will be crucial you work with an agent who is familiar with this and has the knowledge to dig deep to see if Air BNBing Carlsbad will be a possibility in 1 year. I'm happy to help. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to talk more.
