short Term rental in lutz, wesley chapel area.

[Account Closed]

Hi,

I am looking to purchase a home in the wesley chapel, lutz area for usage (at least initially) as short term rental.

I was wondering if anyone has done short term rentals in homes that are located in communities, and if yes- how was that?

Most of the homes available, with what I am looking to spend, are located in a community with HOAs.

Has anyone had any issues with doing a short term rental/ air bnb single family home in a place that is not part of a community/ not HOA.

Do I just need to apply to Hillsborough county for license?

I don't live in Tampa at the moment, so I was considering using a property management company- at least initially. Does anyone have any recommendations for companies?

Also I know that the short term rental industry has been significantly impacted by the coronavirus. Any recommendations or suggestions in this department?

Thanks in advance.

I manage several properties in HOA's. Some are short term rentals and some are long term Rentals. The key is knowing what is in the governing documents. It also would not hurt for you to get guidance from a property manager that has experience in that space.
