This is good to know prior to application and this applies to "Residential" not commercial.

I cannot look for 250k and above properties because that would be my limit. 

I accept section 8 and I haven’t even received a single application. 

Tuscaloosa is a great example—you can find affordable properties, but if zoning doesn’t allow STRs, your exit options are limited.

@JD Martin, I hear you, but the restrictions over here are really limited to Asheville, and really only to about 2/3 of Asheville, and then Woodfin on the northern border of Asheville, which is quite small.

Smaller and you limit your pool of applicants.  

Understanding its limits—and when a Registration Number is required—helps avoid delays and ensures your projects stay compliant with DOB regulations.By getting familiar with this process, contractors can better position themselves for success in New York City’s highly regulated construction environment.

We already have chosen an applicant and we are awaiting approval from the housing voucher program.  

Look at stale listings and price-reduced units.For current owners: trim expenses and keep units top-tier — travelers are getting picky again.For STR operators: underwrite conservatively (60–65 % annual occupancy) and keep a buffer for slower winter months.The fundamentals — beautiful beaches, limited land, and steady tourism — are still unbeatable.

We may further limit what is placed in outside areas.
