Condos in the Austin area can make great short term rental investments too. Condo associations will often take care of many of your maintenance items so it's one less thing you need to worry about. However, you'll want to make sure the condo association allows for short term rental use. Based on a preliminary assessment, these are all condos for sale that you could use as a STR. Before purchasing a property you intend to use as a short term rental, buyer should independently verify all rules, regulations and restrictions for a given property. Make sure to confirm permit caps if the property is located in the City of Austin, and review Condo Documents to ensure they align with your intended use.
The City of Austin Does Allow For Investor Owned Condo Short Term Rentals
These permits are known as Type 3 STR permits. There are caps on the number of short term rentals permits an owner can hold in each condo building. For condos or properties with 4+ units. Permit density is dictated by zoning — check whether a property is residentially or commercially zoned via the City of Austin Property Profile Tool.
– 4+ units, no commercial use: the greater of 1 unit or 10% of owned/leased units may operate as STRs.
– At least 1 commercial use on-site: the greater of 1 unit or 25% of owned/leased units may operate as STRs.
– If that calculation results in a number that is less than zero, then 1 license may be issued.
