I live in Santa Fe NM. I own vacation rentals here?

chapellecasitas asked:


The properties are in a commercial zone so it is perfectly legal for me to use them for Vacation Rentals. The City has a law on the books that says you can not do Vacation Rentals in residential neighborhoods. EVERYONE is doing it though. The City did not enforce the law for years. They are using the internet to rent out their properties and they are putting me out of business.

The City of Santa Fe is going to pass new laws and start enforcing them.

One of the biggest violators has been a couple of management companies run by licensed realtors. They are breaking the law and breaking their code of ethics.

Anyone know anything about tortuous and illegal interference ?

Can I sue them

The bastards are putting me out of business.

No, you can’t sue. Local laws are enforceable, and you are not being singled out - they are presumably going to enforce the laws against all owners. If they only did so against you, and not others, then you might have a case.
