St. Petersburg, FL short-term rental

[Natalia Vysh]

Hi there,

I’m currently under contract on a single-family house in St Pete which I’m planning on using as short-term rental.

Anyone here could share their experience in St Pete as it relates to state / county / city permits? I've heard that St Pete is not super friendly to STR, but unless there are major complaints from the neighbors, it looks like nobody is going to try to try to shut it down. That said, anyone had experience with obtaining FL state permit for STR as advised by Airbnb as well as county / city permits?

Thank you,

Natalia
