Should I rent furnished or unfurnished?
It depends on your target tenant and how long you plan to rent the property. In Las Vegas, most long-term renters prefer unfurnished homes, especially families and professionals signing year-long leases. Furnished rentals are more common in short-term, corporate, or vacation rentals, which often require different permits and can come with higher turnover and maintenance.
If you’re an accidental landlord looking for steady, reliable income, unfurnished rentals tend to attract longer-term tenants and require less ongoing upkeep. However, if your property is near The Strip or in a highly desirable short-term rental zone, a furnished setup could be lucrative – just make sure you’re compliant with local short-term rental regulations.
Do I need a permit to rent out my home in Las Vegas?
For long-term rentals (30 days or more), you generally do not need a special permit in most parts of Las Vegas. However, some HOAs or municipalities (like Henderson or North Las Vegas) may require rental registration or have specific landlord ordinances.
If you’re considering short-term rentals (less than 30 days), such as Airbnb or VRBO, you will need a permit and must comply with strict zoning, licensing, and tax collection rules set by Clark County and the City of Las Vegas. Failure to do so can result in fines.
To avoid legal issues, it’s best to consult with a local property manager who stays current with all licensing and compliance requirements for your area.
