Hey @Jonathan Vinas, @JD Martin hit the nail on the head.You are better off looking in areas with no restrictions if you can.I will say that some of the restrictions might be able to manage.

Solar panels may qualify for the 30% federal energy credit, and advertising expenses, like adding your company’s logo, are deductible.However, Section 280A restricts deductions for any dwelling unit used as a residence for more than 14 days annually, even if partially used for business.

Sad that NY isn't taking advantage of expensive hotels to get most of the US traffick to stay on US side and just do a day visit to Canada side and come back.I don't know why small towns change their STR rules and make restrictions.

Legal Implications and RisksThere are a few legal and procedural risks to be aware of:Title and Zoning Issues: Confirm there are no restrictions tied to the property.

Both permits often have restrictions on the industry the holder cannot engage in.- The holder of a work permit does effectively become a tax resident as far as the CRA (Canadian Revenue Agency) is concerned at which point they will qualify for certain things such as purchase a house without being considered as the foreign buyer; hence, foreign ban hammer not weighing on them.

The City of Portland, and Multnomah County are more restrictive than most of the state for instance.
