Got hot today. 

It's only been a week, but what are my options if they do not return and the RV just sits in the slot? 

Another lady said he'll be done in 10 minutes and asked us to wait.  20 minutes later, we interrupted them to let them know we had to leave and to ask if we can reschedule, he gave us a bad attitude, just said he was there at 5pm at our scheduled time, indicating it was our fault that we missed our slot.  

Have done tons of cleanouts on evictions too, nothing surprises me anymore on how some people can live.The hot water tank had things growing in the hot water overflowing, the refrigerator was tucked in a back shed area where everything inside had liquified. 

Affordable housing is still a hot topic.

After reviewing the latest ordinances, reports, and city guidelines, here’s a summary of my findings as of 11/18/2024:Key FindingsPermit Types and Fees:Type 1 (Owner-Occupied): $300 for 3 years.Type 2 (Non-Owner-Occupied): $450 for 3 years.Density caps apply to Type 2 permits (12.5% of block face).Enforcement:3 violations in 3 years lead to permit revocation.Fines up to $500/day for violations.Hotel Occupancy Tax (HOT):City: 9%, County: 1.75%, State: 6%.Platforms like Airbnb and VRBO will remit directly to the city starting Feb 2025.Platform Obligations:STRs must have valid permits; unpermitted properties will be removed by platforms like Airbnb.Special Exceptions for Density Limits:Require approval by the Board of Adjustment (BOA).Zip Code BreakdownI focused on these 11 zip codes:Under San Antonio Rules:78205, 78204, 78215, 78210, 78212, 78245, 78258Independent Municipalities (Separate Rules):Alamo Heights (78209)Leon Valley (78238)Helotes (78023)Next Steps:Research density caps and zoning in specific zip codes.Dive into independent municipality rules for Alamo Heights, Leon Valley, and Helotes.Evaluate market maturity and income potential using tools like AirDNA.If anyone has experience operating STRs in San Antonio or these specific zip codes, I’d love to hear your insights, especially about density limits, enforcement trends, or community sentiment.Thanks in advance!

If its the trendy hot areas, or general "path of progress" and your able to make a trip and go drive around to find that "path" its really the best way. 

This is rare and has become even more so given how hot the market is but I can guarantee you that it exists because we're offering it.f.

In this case, he gave us ample notice to (most likely) fill that slot, however, I'd like to protect us in the future.

Last part might be a hot take, but that is coming from several long time investors I've spoken too over the years.Hope this helps!
