Short-term rentals depend on where you are

Statewide regulations for short-term rentals in North Carolina have stalled, with local authorities favoring community-level ordinances due to diverse needs. In Cornelius, some rentals are regulated by the town, others by homeowner associations with stricter rules. A bill for statewide regulations was introduced but hasn't advanced. Cornelius enforces its own laws, allowing short-term occupancy in certain zones. HOA boards handle rule violations.
