Short Term Rental Ordinance 
To Take Effect at Midnight July 9th 2018

The city of Charleston’s new Short Term Rental (STR) Ordinance will take effect as of midnight July 9th 2018 . The ordinance, adopted by City Council in April, establishes clear STR eligibility guidelines within Charleston’s historic districts. The ordinance also provides the city with the infrastructure it needs to effectively monitor compliance.

Buyers are holding out hope in peak real estate season, but against the inventory squeeze, their confidence was shaken this spring, according to the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR).

The amount of buyers confident in their housing market prospects stalled at 68 percent, according to NAR’s Housing Opportunities and Market Experience (HOME) second quarter survey—identical to the first quarter’s share, also 68 percent. Their ability to break out has been cut down by severe shortages in supply, and compounded by rising prices.

“Inventory remains the driving force in real estate, affecting everything from rising prices to household formation,” says Lawr...

Soot builds up in chimneys quickly, which can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning, in addition to posing a fire hazard. A certified chimney sweep should be hired to routinely clean your chimney to prevent build-up.
