Short-Term Rental Rules in Denver

• The license is local. Every Denver jurisdiction writes its own short-term rental rule: primary-residence only, a license cap, a ban outside commercial zones, or wide open. The address decides.
• The HOA is the second rule. Many Denver HOAs ban rentals under 30 days. The covenants override what the city allows.
• Licenses rarely transfer. You apply fresh after closing. Where licenses are capped, a wait list applies. Never count income you do not have a license for.
• Taxes and insurance. Lodging tax, sales tax and a commercial-use insurance rider are part of the numbers.
• Financing. Lenders treat short-term rental income cautiously. Second-home and investment loans work; the down payment is 10 to 25 percent.

How to Buy a Short-Term Rental in Denver

1. Tell us the address type: a primary home you rent part-time, or a pure rental. In Denver the rules differ for each.
2. Get pre-approved so your offer in Denver carries weight the day you find the right home.
3. Tour with a Kenna agent, 7 days a week. We show you the home, the block and the closed comps.
4. Write with inspection, appraisal and loan deadlines that protect you, and negotiate what the inspection finds.
5. Close. Most Denver closings run 30 to 45 days.

Denver Questions

Can I run an Airbnb in Denver?

It depends on the jurisdiction and the HOA. Some allow it with a license, some limit it to your primary residence, some ban it outside commercial zones. We check the address and the covenants before you write.

Does the license transfer with the house?

In most Denver jurisdictions, no. You apply after closing. Where licenses are capped, check the wait list first.

How is short-term rental income taxed?

Lodging and sales taxes on each stay, income tax on the profit, and depreciation on the property. A CPA who knows rentals pays for themselves.
