In Valencia County, New Mexico, short-term rentals (STRs), often referred to locally as "vacation rentals," have recently come under regulation with the introduction of a permitting system, particularly in the village of Los Lunas. STRs are legal but require owners to obtain permits, allowing them to operate in residential zones as accessory uses. A key stipulation is that entire homes can be rented for a maximum of 180 days cumulatively per year, while renting just a room has fewer restrictions. The market is diverse, with properties like cabins in the rural areas performing well, alongside urban apartments suited for both leisure travelers and business visitors. Overall, the area sees more tourist activity than business travel, although it is not a primary tourist destination. Nuisance issues and compliance with zoning regulations are closely monitored by the local government, ensuring that the growth of STRs does not negatively impact the neighborhood dynamics. This oversight is handled by the Valencia County Planning and Zoning department.
