Challenging to Investors
Alma permits STRs but lacks specific ordinances, creating regulatory uncertainty while the city develops restrictions including likely licensing, inspections, and occupancy limits. The active regulatory development process and existing 1985 rental inspection program suggest moderate but evolving compliance burdens that could constrain operations.
