Texas Short Term Rentals

[Martin Lewis]

I am setting up short term rentals in Houston Texas and am curious about best practices, things to look out for, best lease agreements, etc. Any input is greatly appreciated!

I am not familiar with any areas that require a lease for short term rentals. If you are renting for 30 days or more it would require a lease, but I have heard it is best practice to only allow stays of 28 days or less in order to avoid any accidental eviction law issues. 

Best tip I can give is find a way to make your rental unique. Whether it is an art mural wall or a scenic view, have that one selling point that gets people talking about staying at your unit.
