Short-term rentals (STRs) in Albany County, New York, are currently unregulated at the city level, with ongoing discussions about implementing a regulatory framework. Locally referred to as "short-term rentals," these properties primarily cater to tourists and business travelers, with urban apartments in the city attracting visitors traveling for state government activities, cultural events, and business meetings. While the current lack of regulations means no specific licensing or fees are required, there is a push for a registry and permit system, which may introduce greater oversight, including the need for owners to obtain Residential Occupancy Permits. This situates Albany amidst a transition phase where rental property operators should remain vigilant about evolving laws and potential future tax implications from a statewide short-term rental registry. The Albany Department of Buildings and Regulatory Compliance oversees these discussions. For further details, visit the official Albany government website at.
