Airbnb / Short Term Rental Regulation Summary

There are two layers of Airbnb regulations in the Tampa housing market to discuss: the state-level and county-level laws. Overall, Airbnb is legal in Tampa on the state level, but no official ordinance has been passed on the county-level. Hillsborough County, the county Tampa is located in, does not have any official short-term rental laws set in stone as of yet. The City Commission started discussing an ordinance in early March 2019. Some of the proposed Airbnb regulations in Tampa include maximum occupancy limits, parking requirements, and minimum living and safety requirements.
