Generally Investor friendly
Short-term rentals are explicitly allowed and follow a clear municipal business licensing path (Business Tax Receipt, zoning verification, site-plan/building permits), with the county TDT registration as the only notable tax. There are no apparent caps, and enforcement tone appears supportive; however, multiple layers (city, county, state DBPR) and potential weekly reporting add moderate compliance complexity without being prohibitive.
