@Placeholder PlaceholderOne word of caution I would advise: If a community or local government is enacting restrictions and also regularly enforcing them, then its often a reflection of the local community sentiment which increases the chance of a neighborhood or nearby resident calling you in if they think you may be running an STR.

The rent control in some cases is really unfair to the landlord as the percentage increases are virtually irrelevant when the rent is a small amount.

And while short-term rentals are the big draw here, there’s also growing demand for mid-term rentals from snowbirds and traveling professionals, as well as long-term housing for the increasing number of permanent residents.Yes, higher interest rates are a factor, but the strong rental demand in the Panhandle often helps offset those costs.

In California, this transfer could also trigger property tax reassessment, increasing the tax bill.

This decision increased our budget from $15K to $45K, but it turned out to be a wise investment.

In 2024, I noticed an increase in BP leads that have been high net worth investors reaching out wanting to 1031 into bigger properties.

You can actually increase your underground water table, but that is a whole post on how dry areas can make their own water. 

It’s standard practice and an essential safeguard for landlords.Trust your instincts and treat this as a non-negotiable policy.

The standard legal procedure, as far as I understand in NC is the landlord must make reasonable effort to re-rent the property (which I will), and any vacant time till new tenants are found must be paid by previous tenants.

It wasn't until the Garn-St.Germain act in 1982 that they started becoming standard.
