Challenging to Investors
Kennesaw Regulations
STRs are technically allowed in single‑family zones, but the citywide cap of 150 licenses plus a 250‑foot buffer, $250 application fee, two‑license owner limit, and annual renewals create a constrained, costly, and uncertain environment for investors, with enforcement and upcoming review adding risk.
