Short Term Rental/Airbnb Ban Information

[Tim Bergstrom]

Hey BP,

I was wondering if someone more knowledgeable about the nitty gritty of the Short Term Rental/Airbnb Nashville ban can shed some light on what I know at this point?

I know that something was passed a few weeks back just want to know what I'm dealing with since over the past few months I have been making plans to convert two of my doors to Short Term Rentals but have just been waiting on renovations to be complete. And if permits become a problem that could significantly alter my plans. I've heard that no permits are being given out at this time (as of May 30, 2017). But is that only for Type 2? Or is that all types?

What is the breakdown of the situation right now? Or is there an article that breaks it down? I've tried doing my own research but can't seem to find anything super current. Maybe I'm just not looking hard enough or in the right places.

Any info would be appreciated! Thanks y'all!

At this time, you can NOT get a Type 2-non owner occupied or type 3-Multi family permit.

The only permits that are possible at this point is a type 1 owner occupied permit, assuming there are permits left for the particular area you are looking at. 

My belief is that type 1 permits are going to be banned at some point. State isn't going to do anything about it until next year (at the earliest).
