They may have pet (likely dog) visitors for short periods.

If you’re not planning to manage them yourself, buy where you are willing to visit or where it’s familiar for you.

As the name suggests, premises liability insurance protects you against lawsuits arising from injuries sustained by visitors to your home. 

Now if it was in Pigeon Forge or somewhere that has a massive visitor demographic and STR's being the name of the game, that risk is mitigated.

Truly, safety and security of oneself and belongings are paramount, and I won't begrudge a neighborhood from installing a gated fence, nor measures to encourage (not force) character/architecture retainment, but again, I have yet to see any data that support increases in crime or poor performance due to the presence of STRs - more importantly, then, is ensuring the city/municpality is afforded the oppportunity to welcome in visitors; Businesses thrive, jobs are created, demand for the area and its amenities increases, and values rise, which is something ALL investors want. 

I have even thought about a mooring as many of the residents/visitors travel there by boat.

@Carly M. one option is to have just her sign the lease, then present her with a separate visitor addendum.

My STR is streaky and is completely dead two months out of the year with no visitors.

The Section 8 investigator will process the taking away of section 8 from tenants that the COPS team can document through calls for service and field interview cards that the unwanted subjects are coming to visit or hang out and are involved in the unwanted crime.You and the COPS team can also build relationships with the great tenants who only want to have a nice, clean and crime free place to live.

I also have a personal SIN that I got long time ago as a visitor in the USA.
