I exited the market due to the short term rental regulations - properties that are rented under 90 days are considered short term.

People’s Republic of Asheville is more concerned with STR regulations than people living in boxes on the streets.

membership is something like APPL which is just non regulated group of private investors working on best practices but there is no authority behind them like  state license or NMLS registration has ..

What may actually be helpful to a family (stability) is not what regulators look at.

Is it tied to changes in the market, a response to new regulations, or part of a long-term plan?

For instance, what are the rules around security deposits, eviction procedures, or property maintenance?

The standard legal procedure, as far as I understand in NC is the landlord must make reasonable effort to re-rent the property (which I will), and any vacant time till new tenants are found must be paid by previous tenants.

Pick up the phone or stop by local code enforcement offices to make sure that you have a crystal clear understanding of local laws and regulations.

Much of my career for the last decade has been in Cybersecurity, and we feel the same about DOJ and regulations around incidents. 

I do NOT trust “regulators”.
