New to STR in Sevierville TN

[Ryan Angelo]

So we are new to all of this, going to hopefully close on cabin in Hidden Springs next month.  It is already doing well on AirBnb, so we decided we will do the same.

Do we have to register the cabin or ourselves with the county to taxes?  I know Airbnb takes care of the state and local taxes, correct?

Any useful information to make this start as smooth as possible would be appreciated..

Thanks!!

@Ryan Angelo Airbnb only takes care of State of Tennessee Sales tax. Not Sevier County Lodging Tax. You'll have to take care of that. First thing you'll need to do is register for a business license with the clerk. Once you do that you can use that license number to file the taxes.
