I am particularly interested in purchasing my first investment property as a short-term rental (STR).After analyzing recent data from AirDNA, I have identified several promising areas: Douglas, Saugatuck, Fennville, and I am also exploring opportunities around Stevensville and New Buffalo.I understand that regulations around STRs vary widely, and I've taken the time to study city maps to identify areas where they are still permitted.

I started out flipping and then transitioned my business to wholesaling so I can easily close on any transaction if I have to.I don't like the bad reputation that wholesaling has because of people jumping into it with no idea or understanding of best practices, but hopefully, with regulations, we can clean out the bad ones.

If you own the property this is very easy, all these regulations do is stop people who are subleasing from having a bunch of airbnbs. 

I’m staying focused on making the best out of my preferred local markets where I know the zoning regulations and what is required governmentally to either own rentals or to do work on my buildings.

Simply access you state landlord tenant regulations.

Do you have an idea of the short term rental regulations in the SLC?

I would only recommend if there is noise regulation in the areas and you need evidence to show.

The NV side in the north has simple regulations although a higher cost of entry.

Tom one thing I'd say for sure Houston is known to have pretty lose zoning and not a lot of regulation.

The reason I say that is you won't run into STR regulation as much in those areas as they are key to the economy.
