01 — WHY UNITED

Good policy starts with
people at the table.

Regulations move quickly. On your own, it’s hard to keep up—and harder to be heard.

STR United gives responsible owners and professional managers the tools, context, and collective voice to participate early and productively.

hello@strunited.org
Is STR United a lobbying organization?+

We are a member cooperative focused on education, civic participation, and practical policy solutions. Where permitted, the co-op may support advocacy that reflects member-approved priorities.

Do I need to manage multiple properties to join?+

No. Individual owners are essential to the network. Our Local Member tier is designed specifically for people operating one or a small number of rentals.

Does STR United oppose all regulation?+

No. We support clear, enforceable rules that protect neighborhoods, guests, and responsible operators. Our goal is policy that solves real problems without unintended harm.

Can my local association participate?+

Yes. Community Partner membership is designed for aligned associations and organizations that want to share knowledge or collaborate on education.

What areas do you currently serve?+

STR United is building a national network with local participation. Founding members help determine where the first active chapters and tracking programs launch.

THE NEXT ORDINANCE IS ALREADY TAKING SHAPE.

Let’s help shape it
together.

Join owners and managers building a more informed, constructive future for short-term rentals.
