Short-term rentals (STRs), commonly referred to as vacation rentals, are legal in Tucson Estates, Arizona, and are primarily regulated under Arizona state law, as the city has yet to establish specific regulations for STRs. In Tucson, a short-term rental is defined as a property rented for less than 30 consecutive days. Potential hosts must acquire a Transaction Privilege Tax (TPT) license from the Arizona Department of Revenue, but there is no complex local licensing process, making it easier for operators to start their businesses. The rental market in Tucson Estates is favorable for a variety of property types, including both urban apartments and rural cabins, catering to a blend of tourists and business travelers. The overall market environment is characterized by its attractiveness to investors looking for a hassle-free regulatory landscape compared to cities with stricter regulations.
