What is short term rental?

Short-term rentals (STRs), commonly referred to as "short-term rentals," are permitted in Jefferson City, Missouri, with specific regulations enforced by the city's Planning Division. Owners of the properties must obtain a business license, and there are occupancy limits: no more than five unrelated persons or a family group can stay at one time, and a maximum of four persons is allowed in a short-term rental room. These rentals thrive in existing residential properties, with the market primarily catering to tourists, although it can also attract business travelers due to the city's status as a regional hub. Popular property types include urban apartments and homes, benefiting from proximity to local attractions and amenities. The city has implemented a 7% lodging tax, which hosts must collect and remit monthly. All regulations are overseen by the local authorities, particularly the Planning Division, which ensures compliance with building and safety standards. For more detailed information, visit the official Jefferson City website at.
