Challenging to Investors
Gloucester permits short-term rentals but imposes significant constraints: a citywide cap of 500 non‑owner‑occupied permits, day caps by category, occupancy limits, and a prohibition on corporate ownership. Investors must navigate two annual permits (STR + health rental registration) with possible inspections and moderate fees, while penalties are stiff.
