Challenging to Investors
Los Gatos allows STRs, but caps licenses at 5% of the housing stock and enforces strict annual day caps (180 hosted/30 unhosted) while requiring primary‑residence status, onsite parking, 24/7 local representation, inspections, multi‑step licensing, and quarterly TOT remittance, with revocation after three violations in 12 months.
