A Jersey Shore pro forma can be wrong before you type in a single revenue number.

Not because of bad math. Because of bad assumptions about the town.

New Jersey doesn't have one set of short-term rental rules. Every town writes its own — and the difference between a permissive municipality and a restrictive one isn't just a footnote. It's the difference between a cash-flowing investment and a property that legally can't operate as a rental at all.

I maintain a running file on Shore town ordinances — because crossing a single town line can completely change your rental strategy, your minimum stay, your tax obligations, and whether you're even allowed to list.

Before you fall in love with a property, get these four questions answered in writing — before attorney review ends, before you're committed:

→ What is the shortest legal stay this town allows?
→ Does this specific address and property type qualify for STR use?
→ How often does this town inspect — and does an owner or agent need to be present?
→ Which state and local taxes apply to your actual booking channel?

This is the homework most buyers skip. It's the homework I do for every client.

High land value at the Outer Banks is NOT a dealbreaker for STR investors.

It might actually be the whole point.

Here's the logic most buyers miss:

They see a $1.2M OBX property with $500K in land value, assume that's $500K they can't depreciate — and walk away.

But that property still carries ~$700K in depreciable improvements. The tax strategy is still there.

And you're also holding $500K of scarce, finite, oceanfront land that nobody can manufacture more of.

The land has a different job in the investment.

Its job is scarcity, location value, and long-term appreciation.

Rental income + depreciation benefits + coastal land that holds and grows its value.

That's the full Outer Banks case.
