Challenging to Investors
Grafton Regulations
STRs are legal but there is no city STR ordinance; investors must rely on general zoning, IRC building codes, county health permits, and state lodging tax, creating moderate permitting and compliance steps; no caps are stated, yet the lack of city-specific guidance and supportive tone increases uncertainty and risk for investors.
