I guess I'm curious. Why do folks feel the need to start new threads on topics that are under current discussion?

As to STR's. I'm willing to bet, most short-term rentals units in TV don't have the required permit from the State of Florida. Just speculation on my part.

Most of the homes in TV are prohibited by Deed Restriction, from being used for "Business". That's either for the Developer or 3rd Party Beneficiaries to enforce.

The various towns/counties involved TV don't seem to give a hoot about STR's and there are some state restrictions on what they can do about it.

Here are some of the basics:

Very interesting read. Begs the question, how many of these rentals actually have the required licenses and pay their taxes, or maybe even claim homestead exemptions.
