Common questions about short-term rentals websites
Does my vacation rental website need permit information?
Most cities and counties that regulate short-term rentals require the permit number to be displayed on all advertising, including your website and third-party listing sites like Airbnb and VRBO.
What safety information should my rental website include?
Disclose safety equipment available (smoke detectors, CO detectors, fire extinguishers), maximum occupancy, pool/hot tub safety rules, and emergency contact information. Many jurisdictions require this as part of the permit.
