Unincorporated Pinellas County
Hi All,
I plan on purchasing a STR in Unincorporated Pinellas County. I have already confirmed with the county that I can rent these properties as an STR, but I need to get a permit and would have to follow specific rules. I have spoken to several property management companies and have gotten a mix of results if I should actually get a permit with the county. One of the property management companies suggested I do not get a permit as there is little to no enforcement in unincorporated parts of the county. I have spoken to others, and they have told me to get a permit. What is everyone's suggestion?

Hey @Kyle Shea, first off, don't do business with a PM that advocates for breaking the law.
It's like them saying, hey let's rob a few 7-11's to increase the ROI.
First, read up on self management here on the forum. There is a lot of resources here to help with that.
Otherwise, avoid that one PM or any that say just roll the dice. Don't be that STR owner.
