Short-Term Rental Potential: Income-generating potential often contributes to market value, especially in areas with permissive rental regulations
Flood Zones & Coastal Hazards: FEMA floodplain mapping and sea-level exposure influence insurability and market perception
Zoning Overlays & Coastal Commission Influence: Coastal zoning regulations, building height limits, and permitting processes can affect redevelopment or expansion potential
Property Types & Variability: Housing stock ranges from original beach cottages to custom new builds and multi-unit structures with shared amenities
