Short term rentals in Vegas

[Alex Castillo]

Any suggestions on how or where to start to lear about str? I'm looking into buying a home in vegas and house or duplex and hacking with airbnb or similar. I've been reading that there are some areas in Vegas in which this is not allowed and/or the owner "needs" to actually be "living in the home" at same time they're renting out to str guest…? Is this accurate? Is this the only way to do so? Would I be able to also rent out my residence for the weekend and go with a friend during the weekends? Is that allowed?

 Any feedback would be much appreciated.

@Jimmy Woodard there are also specific areas where a STR is prohibited, even if it fits the other criteria. These are specific planned communities where no STR would be allowed by the city.
