Rules Summary : To be considered the permanent resident, you must spend at least 275 nights a year in the unit where you host short-term rentals. If you own/rent a multi-unit building, you may only register the specific residential unit in which you reside. You may only offer short-term rentals once you have obtained a Business Registration Certificate for your property from the San Francisco Office of the Treasurer & Tax Collector, and then received a certificate from the Office of Short-Term Rentals. The certificate number must be posted on all listings advertising a short-term rental. "Unhosted rentals" occur when you are not present in your unit during your guests' stay. Registered hosts may only conduct unhosted short-term rentals for up to 90 nights per calendar year. This is in addition to the core rule that you may only host short-term rentals in the home where you also live at least 275 nights per year.



Legal For No- occupied : Yes



Rented Day Limit : 90 days of non-owner occupied
