What are the city ordinances, has anyone has any trouble with the local government in terms of short term vacation rentals and if the strategy is in fact legal and allowed what is the climate regarding that?

My first thought was just to slap a padlock on all the offices and rent them as climate controlled storage units.

The United States is enormous and widely diverse in people, cultures, climates, economies, markets, etc. 

Note I'm in Arizona so things that pertain to a wintery climate aren't listed.

Decks can move too, especially in cold climates.

With the baby boom retiring & the looming climate changes, some of the top RE investors advise looking to warmer climates.  

How can people who can't answer that make informed decisions about climate, geopolitics, or any of the other seriously important issues we as a nation deal with. 

I find McAllen attractive because I just like areas with warmer climate, are with new developments streets and new homes (kinda reminds me of parts of CA and Nevada in the earlier days because it got too expensive), large population growth in the foreseeable future, city in a business friendly state in general, surprisingly good school ratings (not sure how accurate this info is though), and not widely known yet compared to other cities.Being from out of state, which area in this city has the highest potential for rental appreciation?

Getting a proper climate control environment is priority #1.

Can move anywhere or stay put.No family or anything holding back from making drastic moves.What market/strategy would you use the 100k for buy/hold purposes in today's climate?
