STR Regulations Apply

Rentals under 6 months banned in most residential areas

Miami Beach prohibits rentals under 6 months in most residential areas. STRs only allowed in certain tourist-zoned parts. Formerly $20,000 first-offense fines.

Permit: Very HardPermit Cap in Effect
Grade Impact: Base score of 60/100 would be grade B, but capped at C (54/100) due to regulation risk.
Verified data as of February 2026 · Regulations change frequently
📞 How to Verify
Call the Miami Beach City Clerk or Planning & Zoning Department and ask:
1. Are short-term rentals (under 30 days) allowed at [your address]?
2. What permits or licenses are required?
3. Are there owner-occupancy requirements?
4. Any caps on rental nights per year or number of permits?
Many cities have active short-term rentals operating legally with permits — restrictions don't always mean it's impossible.
