Questions about owning/operating an STR in San Antonio

[Christopher Oliva]

Hi Everyone,

I'm going to be buying a house off of 410 near the Airport, my plan is to turn it into an STR. I have an LTR but this will be my first STR, so I'm not well versed on the ins & outs of what I should be aware of for these types of rentals.

The house is in a nice neighborhood and there's no HOA restrictions to worry about. I've started to do some research and I know about the HOT and the STR permit, but aside from that are there any other city ordinances/requirements I should be aware of?

Also, any other general advice about owning/operating an STR in San Antonio would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks!
