Hey @Isaiah Cortez, here are the deets on STRs via the city - https://www.fortlauderdale.gov/government/departments-a-h/de...I don't have any real insights on the area, but do a search and you will find some details.

@Joshua ChristensenI agree with you that brokers are not experts in zoning, but this broker should have told his client to go to the zoning department to verify.

Go in person to the planning department and talk to them.

If I have some cash do you recommend clearing the loan or invest instead for next property with proper planning ? 

Hi All,I know this question probably comes up often, but I wanted to ask: if you're using QuickBooks to manage your rental properties, which plan are you using?

I would guess that an employee in the zoning department could answer questions, too.  

@Bryan Zayac  In PA, there is a state document called the Municipal Planning Code MPC. 

With some proper planning and the funds to lock in materials early, you can have an efficient build, but certainly not fast.

@Arthur Savery, This can be a great game plan called a diversification exchange. 

I knew the fire insurance would be CA Fair Plan.
