Whitefish, MT If they ever crack down on STRs in Tampa it could get ugly lol 

Ormond Beach for instance - properties that would have been snatched up by STR investors are sitting on the market with price drop after price drop due to zoning crack downs..

AirBNB is trying to crack down on this by requiring permits for certain areas (I had to show proof of permit for City of Denver for AirBNB to allow my listing to go live).

There are two aspects to the government “crackdown”.

A bad area on the other side of town that unexpectedly moved into my neighborhood after federal law enforcement decided it was time for a crack down on gangs, who just relocated to my hood.A bullet through my bedroom window.A drive-by shooting 1 block over that I only woke up to at 4am after hearing a woman screaming outside her house.A friend managing similar properties across town clubbed on the head as he stopped by to collect rent, waking up hours later in the stairwell, pockets emptied. 

The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals.

The state is trying to crack down on unethical wholesaling

@Ricardo Riveros, many ATL submarkets are starting to crack down on STRs.

Some of the finer points that I can see are $25,000 in down payment assistance for first-time homebuyers, 3 million new housing units within the next four years, tax credits for developers who build starter homes, investing $40 million in an innovation fund to tackle the housing crisis, and expanding a tax credit for housing developers who build affordable housing rental units.Forbes also says she wants Congress to crack down on "predatory investors" who buy up rental homes and collude with each other to raise rental prices.Just sharing this because there's obvious impacts on the housing market if this all takes effect.This is basically just a summary of the Forbes article, you can read it in full here: https://www.forbes.com/sites/alisondurkee/2024/08/16/kamala-... 

People have all kinds of proposed work arounds, but that's good until it is time to sell or the government decides to crack down and they do now and then.
