Is there anyone who can offer advice or perhaps a professional with more experience in my area who would be willing to help council me. i would very much appreciate it and be more then willing to do something to help return the favor.

Do any of you know what the status of vacation rentals with the city council currently is in JT and where it's likely to go?

Although you may be able to get great information from the local jurisdiction and its written development plans and ordinances, it will be the will of the people - either directly in neighborhood town hall meetings focused on such issues - or indirectly through their elected or appointed officials involved in the (again, political) process (planning commission and county commission or city council meeting for the purpose of considering such proposals) of coming to a decision on your proposal for a use different than what already exists.This is not a bad thing - the same emotions that drive neighborhood positions also drive care of existing properties - and thus, their and your land values.A land-use practitioner may be a great ally throughout this process - ask around among others who have navigated these waters and interview the most likely of their suggestions to find one sympathetic to your cause and not antagonistic to the political powers-that-be.  

As you may already know, the luxury home market isn't as greatly effected with the sub-prime mortgage meltdown, as most of the buyers of luxury homes have the necessary capital to purchase.In addition, with the strength of the euro and the pound against the US dollar, now is a great time for the British and others from abroad to invest in US luxury homes.There are many other reasons to explore opportunities in this market too!

I'm sure it varies from province to province as well - I'm interested in Calgary, Alberta and Okanagan area of British Columbia, thanks!

The Baltimore City Council has also entertained some restrictive Airbnb measures as well but they seem to be tabled for now.I was referring to Fells Point, in Baltimore.

I found it’s very expensive to trade properties in the market, the property manager charges 13%+ and there’re thousands of council fees annually and the labour cost to maintain the property is huge.

29 Palms City Council just voted no on an STR permit moratorium.

Try looking at the townships north and west of Duluth. there's opportunities there for STR's without the Duluth city council taking the hotel money to shut you down. 

Please allow me to clarify why we like to meet our investors face to face prior to adding them to our distribution list.I agree with you in the fact that "explain how our contracts work" was a poor choice of words because in no way are we trying to offer you any sort of legal advice or council.
