It only takes one in a Villa neighborhood to be a nuisance for many. The villas are very close, there are easement issues and parking is limited.

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.

Not to be contrary, but honestly, many of us full time residents in our neighborhood of designer home models, are beginning to worry about just how "bad" this will become, and if it will begin to effect property values (right now it seems anything in Florida sells, and especially here in the V's). Of course there is nothing we can do, but we are sad that the folks who come and go in these larger homes almost never speak, have no interest of course in getting to know anyone, they will rent a different home for a week next year, and so on. Don't really want to be a "whiner", but many in our neighborhood are realizing it's depressing. We no longer have that "something special" among neighbors, one put it very well when he said " it's getting like the big city coldness I left years ago". I understand what he meant. I realize there is no answer, things change. Our street was not built for multiple vehicles, often blocking "just" enough of the next home's drive to make it a little stressful to back out, and most of all, just the "atmosphere" of not having any interest in knowing anyone, which of course makes sense when you are only using a home as a base for a week's vacation. The "quiet" part you were trying to understand, I can only explain for our neighborhood, but we've never had traffic and noise, arrivals and departures at 1 a.m., 2 a.m. etc. in all the years since building here. But again, before the hate speech starts, most of us do understand, we've had some of our "originals" pass away, and the commercial people, have scooped up 4 properties on just our block. Just hate to see it happen... out of our hands. An element of this same issue I see as faulty, is the opinion some have expressed that these "in & out" folks don't pay for amenities. SOMEONE always pays, the person who rents out multiple properties still has to pay amenities on EACH property, they can simply build that into the nightly or weekly rates.

Bottom line, short term rentals suck when they are in your neighborhood and close to your home. It’s easy to say they aren’t a problem when there not in your neighborhood. We had a woman running an AIRBnB out of her home for a couple years which was extremely disruptive and disrespectful to the neighbors. Fortunately, she has moved out and our neighborhood is back to being peaceful and enjoyable, but I sincerely feel sorry for fellow Villagers who have to deal with a similar situation.
The internal deed restrictions being violated by these rentals are the responsibility of the developer to enforce and they have chosen to look the other way. It’s no wonder why, restricting rentals will reduce demand for new homes since some potential home buyers won’t be able to easily generate income from their home while living there. And as anyone paying attention knows, it’s all about selling homes. Talk about the fox watching the hen house, can you say “conflict of interest”. As far as Sumter County doing something about the situation, don’t hold your breath. The county is basically controlled by the developer, and if they don’t want to address the situation don’t expect the county to act otherwise. You could bet your bottom dollar that if new home sales dried up because potential buyers strongly communicated they don’t want to risk investing their savings in a community with short term rentals, the problem would be addressed in a heart beat. But as long as new homes are selling faster than they can be built, nothing will change. |

The deed restrictions were put into place by the developer before the streets even existed, they are no different than any other deed restriction, not laws.

Here is my suggestion, instead of trying to get laws passed, why not talk to the landlord about it? You just go on the Sumter county website and find out who the owner is and get in touch with them when there are issues. Seriously, nobody wants to be a bother, they probably don't know. You may be able to get hold of them through the airbnb site also, not sure.
