Applying for short term rental permit

[Alberto Gomez]

Hello. I was wondering if anyone had some guidance on how I can figure out if the city of Morgantown, WV requires short term rental permits to operate a short term rental and if it does, how to apply for one.

I'd always recommend you or your agent calling the actual rental/building department at city hall. Those STR laws change frequently, so worth calling, AND it generally is the quickest way to get an answer. We do it each time we get under contract on a property, and it only takes a few minutes.
