STR RV Lots?

[Shane Lyons]

Maybe a random topic, but I've seen some listings for single RV Lots around me here in the Southeast and am curious what the typical STR rules are for these. Seems like upkeep and entry costs are quite low. Anyone have experience picking up a lot in an existing RV park and just renting it out??

We have a couple of RV slots in north central texas that we are thinking of repurposing from long term to short term. STR rules are going to vary from state to state, county to county and finally if it is in a city limit, there may be additional rules imposed in local jurisdictions or by HOAs, if the location happens to be in an area where an HOA has authority.

I can't speak for your locale, but in Texas, one of the main issues is making sure you are paying hotel taxes (state level + county level + city (if within a city limit)). Registration or other permit requirements, if they exist, are normally specific to each local & no broad brush requirement can be applied other than hotel taxes.

Lastly, regarding entry requirements, you'll probably need some base level of amenities to drive traffic to your STRs (i.e. game areas, hot tubs, fire pits, etc...)

Let us know how your journey goes, really exciting..
