## State tax context, Florida
Florida has no state individual income tax, federal §168(k) bonus depreciation under OBBBA's restored 100% is the entire tax story for Naples investors. No state addback, no decoupling. The 6% Florida sales tax plus 5% Collier County tourist development tax apply to short-term rental income but don't affect the federal income tax calculation cost segregation changes.


## Neighborhood profiles

## Methodology
- Base costs: RSMeans 2026 by component category
- Time index: BLS PPI Construction Materials (adjusts RSMeans to acquisition-date dollars)
- Land allocation: County assessor records where reliable, statistical fallback otherwise (premium floor applies for high reconciliation factors)
- MACRS classification: IRS Pub. 946 + Rev. Proc. 87-56
- Bonus depreciation: 100% (OBBBA permanently restored, 2025+)
- All numbers reproducible from `cities/naples.json` fixtures via `scripts/run_city_stats.py`

## Regulatory context
City of Naples maintains a moderately restrictive short-term rental regulatory environment within city limits, with minimum stay requirements and registration obligations for STR operations. Collier County unincorporated areas (East Naples, parts of North Naples) operate lighter regulatory regimes. Lee County (Bonita Springs, Estero) has its own permit regime distinct from Collier. STR-intent buyers should verify the property's jurisdiction. Hurricane exposure is the practical hold-period risk, post-2022 Florida property insurance availability and cost has been challenging in Collier and Lee counties, and capital-assessment activity for envelope work and balcony reconstruction has been substantial. Material participation under §469 is achievable for self-managing owners but harder for buyers using full-service management, document hours contemporaneously. The retiree-investor concentration in Naples often means owners directly manage their own STR operations, which supports cleaner §469 active-participation positions.
