Lexington Regulations
STRs are explicitly allowed under North Carolina’s Vacation Rental Act, so outright bans aren’t possible; operations hinge on routine zoning verification, state/local tax registration, a business license, and safety code compliance. With no city-specific caps or onerous permitting cited, the compliance path is straightforward and predictable, making it attractive to investors.
