Hillsborough County Rental Rules Owners Should Know

New county registry: unincorporated Hillsborough rentals must register every year starting January 1, 2027. The fee is $200 a year, and you'll need a local responsible party to handle complaints. Tampa, Temple Terrace and Plant City can opt in but aren't included automatically. Source: WUSF, Sept 2026
City of Tampa: the city repealed its rental registration in 2023, but a Business Tax Receipt is still required for rental properties. Source: City of Tampa
Florida state license: a whole home rented more than 3 times a year for stays under 30 days needs a vacation rental license from the Florida DBPR. Source: Florida DBPR
Tourist tax: about 13.5% in total (6% state, 1.5% county surtax, 6% county tourist tax). Airbnb and Vrbo collect the county tourist tax on their bookings. We handle tourist tax filing for every home we manage. Source: Hillsborough Tax Collector
HOAs and condos: Florida law lets an HOA restrict rentals shorter than 6 months, or more than 3 rentals a year. City approval doesn't override your association's documents, so check those first. Source: Fla. Stat. 720.306

Hillsborough County Management FAQs

Does the new Hillsborough rental registry apply to my home?

It covers unincorporated Hillsborough County starting January 1, 2027: a $200 yearly registration and a local responsible party. Homes inside Tampa, Temple Terrace and Plant City are only covered if those cities opt in. We'll check your address with you.

Do I need a permit to rent short-term in the City of Tampa?

Tampa repealed its rental registration in 2023, but rental properties still need a City of Tampa Business Tax Receipt, plus the Florida DBPR vacation rental license.

Do you manage homes in Hillsborough County?

Our current homes are in Pinellas County, right across the bay, and in Louisville. Hillsborough owners get the same team, pricing and systems we use on our own calendars.

What does your management include?
