Has anybody ever invested in Ojai, CA? How is the Airbnb action there? Is there anywhere better?

Does anyone actually look at the previous posts in a thread?

Poconos, PA on the East Coast may be worth doing your own due-diligence on - 1 - Historically proven vacation market - 2 - Year-round attractions such as lakes/ski resorts/fishing/hunting/hiking/camping - 3 - Close proximity to NYC and PHL - 4 - local municipalities are dependent on tax & visitor revenue generated from the industry, so albeit regulations are due to come, vacation rentals are not going away.

Analyze locations you know. Bonus points if it’s a vacation market. 1 - needs to be within driving for a decent population. 2 - something in the area is drawing folks in. 3 - has to be properly regulated / zoned.

So do you mean literally where are the hottest spots for AirBnB or figuratively? Because if it’s the latter then my vote is for Destin Florida or Panama City Beach.

No I don't lol...yes, I do, lol....this is why there so much confusion within the STR market. The people who really, really, know, don't talk about it, because they want to protect their investments.  I'm in the Tampa Florida market. One of the hottest markets around.   I have tapped into a new area, of high grossing hidden gems.  Anyway, it takes hours of research and calls to zoning offices, to get the real rules.

There are no more short term rentals allowed in Ojai city limits. You can in certain areas of oak view, and maybe meiners oaks. Ojai connects to meiners oaks, Mira monte, and oak view. They did away with them a few years back and really pissed off a lot  of people here.

I'm going to go with death valley CA, Yuma AZ, and maybe someone where out in the desert in Nevada!!

Short term rental action. Not AirBNB action. :)

Pretty much non resistant in Ojai.

includes entire homes and a portion of a home.

Vacation rentals are not legal in residential zones.

Vacation rentals are not legal in village mixed use.

The moratorium on Conditional Use Permits for transient rentals in residential zones is still in effect.

There is not currently a method to register a Transient/Vacation Rental.
