As you may be aware, the City of Asheville (about 2/3 of Asheville is in city limits; the rest is under county jurisdiction) has had strict STR regulations in place since 2016.

I understand some of the economic factors that can lead one to a particular city or province (or state), but unsure of some of the key elements as you funnel down below that level.Appreciate any insight.Tyler 

I sent an email to the city and received a long response.

Can you share what city in which this property is located?

What city/market is the property in? 

Of course I am partial to Kansas City.

Each city is different. 

In a city like Philly, you will face many challenges - you need to learn the market and know the neighborhood and the block and make sure all of your numbers are within reason, you need very reliable contractors, you need a to understand the permit process, you need to be familiar with market expectations. 

I have a city rowhouse with a 20' sidewalk and 5' wide steps with 9 treads and two 7'x7' landings.

Then these are applied to all properties in that area of the city.
