Short-term rentals (STRs), commonly referred to as vacation rentals, are legal in Broward County, Florida, but are subject to various regulations enforced at city and county levels. To operate an STR, property owners must obtain a Residential Rental Certificate and a Business Tax Receipt, in addition to state licensing if renting more than three times a year for under 30 days. Fort Lauderdale, a city within the county, requires an annual registration fee of $350 for properties advertised for 30 days or less. The rental market is primarily driven by tourists, especially in urban areas such as Fort Lauderdale and Hollywood, where condos, apartments, and single-family homes flourish due to proximity to beaches, dining, and entertainment venues. While there are instances of STRs thriving in rural settings, urban accommodations account for a larger share of the market. The governing authority for these regulations is the Broward County Urban Planning Division, which ensures compliance with local ordinances, including safety inspections and tax collection on rental income.
