In terms of new construction, a couple things to be aware of in San Luis Obispo County are water shortage issues and development fees/taxes which can significantly increase the building costs.SLO city and the neighboring cities are particularly diligent on their water usage, as most of the county's water supply comes from three surface water reservoirs and a groundwater basin.

Access to an STR isn't essential, but helpful and bonus when it's personal usage time..- Insurability & Operations costs: Can be considerably lower (especially in comparison to CA) with most coastal regions there is much lower wildfire risk and the properties that are in flood zones, have surprisingly accessible and affordable policy costs.

I am looking in to a SFR brand new construction that offers live and work usage.

Tenants don't see any difference between a den and a bedroom as long as it's a functional living space, so you won't run into any issues thereIt's unlikely that you would have to pump out the system more than normal with standard usage, but one thing I would recommend is to always ensure your septic alarm is fully operational.

Otherwise, you need to allocate based on usage or square footage. 

We also did many calculations of income and expense models over time, based on usage.

The exception to that would be health/safety items required to rent/occupy is such as GFCI outlets in appropriate locations. 2.

On our current STR Hot sheet for the Oregon Coast we’re showing about 100 active listings that are eligible for a vacation rental permit and nightly AirBnB rental usages. 

This is one of the last remaining buildings in Capital Square that has legal Bed and Breakfast usage rights.
