Airbnb allow in a beach town close to Miami

[Lucy Iburg]

I want to buy a vacation rental that I can rent with airbnb, just found out Miami Beach doesn’t allow it.

Do you know any beach town close to Miami that allows airbnb?

@Lucy Iburg well, right now, Airbnbs and other weekly/daily rentals aren’t allowed anywhere in Miami because of Coronavirus. So far, the mandatory shut down of STRs goes until April 30, 2020.

But if you’re talking before and (hopefully) after the shutdown, then if you’re beholden to Miami Beach, there’s an area about 5-10 min north of Miami Beach called North Beach where I believe the city doesn’t have regulations on Airbnbs. However, if you buy a condo, you have to make sure your COA allows it. Most don’t.

If you don't mind going even more north, Hollywood Beach, which is close to Ft Lauderdale airport, has places where you can just walk to the beach and the city of Hollywood, FL has regulations on how to get an STR permit, which means the city has actually thought about AirBnbs and is intentionally allowing them.

If you’re interested in this area, I have a lot of fellow Airbnbers who who were over-leveraged when the shut down hit and are now trying to get out of the game. So good time to get deals.
