There is no question in my mind that local zoning laws are a core cause of housing shortages but unregulated STRs are not helping.

Note in NJ, heating oil tanks below 2,000 gallons are unregulated though landowner can still be liable for cleanup.Sometimes closure in place is appropriate where excavation could undermine building.

Ahhhh, Idaho, the land of the unregulated property managers!

Good luck Ronan is correct, there are a new set of regulations that you will have to pay attention to, including that you HAVE to offer a renewal.From what I understand, once an apt is regulated, it cannot become unregulated without substantial effort, like moving in to the apt once it is vacated.

If no records are found then usually it means nothing was reported to NJDEP (i.e. like an oil tank leak, or presence of unregulated oil tank, etc.). 

The other new activity is around "emerging contaminants" which are previously unregulated or still unregulated.

In order to permit tenants to adjust to the possibility of unregulated rents, and to address the potential for abuse of the owner-occupancy exemption by landlords who are motivated to move into a property to gain an exemption just to increase rent and not to reside in the property, this exemption should not take effect for one year after the amendment to This chapter exempting these rental units is adopted, or one year after the landlord begins owner-occupancy, whichever is later.I'm not sure you answered my specific question, but you have brought the above paragraph to my attention which looks like it directly applies to me NOW being exempt from Oakland's rent control and the "Just Cause for Eviction Ordinance" since I moved back in and Owner occupy one of the two units.

This is where you'll see the intent and further you'll see who the law applies to or who is excluded.Financial entities, security firms, etc. are regulated under other statutes and are often exempted from statutes, if the didn't they may be requiring something contrary to other provisions or loading up some USDA farm operation allocating assets from title rights in land of a co-op moving future crop productions.I learned in the early 90s that a "business broker" in Missouri was an unregulated brokerage operation, they don't sell the RE, they can get a RE broker or attorney or allow the seller do to that part alone.

Of course we're in a bad situation in TX due to our outrageous ppty tax and our high (unregulated) insurance rates!

@William M. it's a wide practice that heavily unregulated but heavily fined by the RE Commission.
