STR Your Primary Residence

[Scheherazarde Roddie]

Hi Everyone, 

Looking to learn about your experiences with STR. Any investors doing a STR out of your primary residence? Did you use your LLC or apply for a permit using your personal information? Do you reserve dates solely when you're away or do you stay when you have guest booked? Do you advertise shared space for the kitchen? Any learnings from your experience you wish you knew before?

For those with your permit approved in Davidson county: Are adjacent neighbors defined as sending notifications or getting signatures, from the block surroinding you? I watched the youtube video for Davidson county and gathered it's more than me notifying the neighbor next door. 

Thanks in advance.

Scheherazarde,

If you are correctly permitted, you will have to decide between offering by the room or whole house.  You cannot do both simultaneously.

That's what I thought as well! And I'd definitely would choose whole house, I had nothing but bad experiences with room renting...
