In addition, San Diego city council today is looking to cap STRs.  

Also, you should look a little deeper at that number from the National Multifamily Housing Council that is being cited in the 1/3 headline (it was actually 69% by the 5th). 

.: Considering buying a STR property in Seattle instead of the Eastside, but I'm concerned about the city council - their laws around crime as well as landlord regulations.

you're exactly right James Vermillion....Charlotte City Council said the purpose was to know where to get ahold of landlords..however, that is already public record, so this seems a little redundant...second of all, they said it was to punish landlords who repeatedly have crime occur at their property....Shouldn't we just punish the people who are committing those crimes instead of pushing the blame onto someone else?!

@MARK S KING Check out Council Bluffs, IA.

Account Closed, here's some articles on recent city council agendas/ordinance proposals dealing with landlords.

@Samuel Pavlovcik Maybe you have some feedback here on the progress in city council? 

I heard of a guy building an adu near Hilo (with intent of STR) and by the time he was finished the city council ruled STR's in that area illegal. 

@Brian Gibbons  put up a video yesterday I believe with an attorney who works with investors and legal council for a state real estate commission.

Lol @Brian Hughes - yes, Seattle city council seems to think us landlords are “the dark side”.
