In Nashville and Davidson County, anyone wishing to rent a property on Short Term Rental Property (STRP) websites must receive a permit from the Metro Codes Department prior to listing. STRP owners may not receive compensation for occupancy of less than twenty-four hours, and the maximum stay for any guest is thirty consecutive days. Permits must be renewed annually, and permit holders are required to remit business, sales, and hotel occupancy taxes to the city and state.
