Regs can run the gamut:  STR licenses are unlimited and available immediately with no restrictions, STRs can only be rented so many nights/ stays a year, STRs can only be in designated areas, the number of STRs are capped and there is a waitlist for a license.As others have mentioned, typically an unregulated STR will have more revenue than a LTR, but it will require more consistent work and effort.
