Two thoughts - 1) We have seen the Blue areas become much more regulatory, as we would expect from that mindset...but yes, I gotta agree, I think it does cross the line in this case. 2) Not all neighborhoods resent STRs. 2 of my STRs were in neighborhoods where they were actively welcomed.

We expect a tenantwith an animal to do their part to combat fleas and ticks.

Yeah Uncle Sammy said it's now T-town and that a dog-scat deal so to kick-rocks. 

@Martti Eckert here's the big issue that no one really talks about that you hopefully find helpful (this is copy & pasted):-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

I am wondering how much expected weather of an area impacts your decision to invest in a specific area.Recently looked at Census data which shows that people are predominantly moving to Florida and Texas.

Ideally, you are looking for places where everyone is expected to network like local reia meetings.4.

We can only hope future clients get their expected return.

But if borrowing costs remain high and interest rates don't fall as many people expect, cap rates will have to decompress further. 

As a business, a judge will expect YOU to know all the laws and legal procedures.Make a minor mistake and the judge is unlikely to give you a break and may rule in the tenant's favor.The judge will see the tenant as a consumer and may give them a lot of leeway in court, even give them borderline legal advice.You are in over your head, not having the knowledge to properly handle this.

That's just straight up Bull-S%#t.
