Tallahassee, FL

## Why Tallahassee — and what it means for your property

Tallahassee is Florida's capital and home to FSU and FAMU. We manage short stays for game and graduation weekends and furnished monthly rentals for the legislative session.

Tallahassee sits in **Leon County**, which sets much of the regulatory and tax picture for property here. We track those rules per address rather than per city, because they rarely stop neatly at a city line.

### What stands out about Tallahassee

-   Seat of state government, where the Legislature holds its sessions
-   Florida State University, Florida A&M University and Tallahassee State College
-   Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare and HCA Florida Capital Hospital
-   Tallahassee International Airport (TLH)
-   Leon County's 5% tourist tax is remitted by Airbnb and VRBO for their hosts

## How short-term rental management works in Tallahassee

### What short-term rental management actually covers

Short-term rental management means someone else runs the business your home has become: the listing, the price of every night, every guest message, every turnover, every repair and every statement. Done properly it is a full-time operation — which is exactly why most owners hand it over.

We have hosted short-term rentals since 2016 and manage 350+ homes across Florida. Cleaning and maintenance are done by our own staff, not a rotating list of strangers, and guest communication runs around the clock.

### Pricing every night, not once a season

Florida demand moves with snowbird season, spring break, school holidays, festivals, race weeks and summer on the Gulf and the Panhandle. A rate set once leaves money behind on the busy nights and empty nights in the quiet weeks.

We review your calendar daily and price each night around real demand, the competing homes near you and the events coming up — then check the result in your monthly statement.

### What short-term rental management looks like in Tallahassee specifically

Tallahassee has no city vacation rental registration in its Code of Ordinances or Land Development Code as of October 2026, so short-term rental management here rests on the state DBPR license and tax accounts. Homes outside city limits fall under Leon County, and association documents can restrict short stays at any address.

Weekend demand follows Florida State University, Florida A&M University and Tallahassee State College: game days, campus visits and commencement. Pricing and minimum stays are set around those dates, which differ from the legislative calendar that drives longer bookings.

Tallahassee questions

## Owning and renting in Tallahassee

Is Airbnb legal in Tallahassee?

Yes. As of October 2026 neither the City of Tallahassee's Code of Ordinances nor its Land Development Code has a separate vacation rental license or registration chapter, so the statewide rules apply: a DBPR vacation rental license (§509.241) and state and county tax registration. HOA covenants and condo documents can still restrict short stays at a given address.

What taxes apply to short-term rentals in Tallahassee?

Tallahassee stays of six months or less are taxed at 12.5%: Florida's 6% sales tax (§212.03), Leon County's 1.5% discretionary sales surtax (DR-15DSS, 2026) and Leon County's 5% tourist development tax (DR-15TDT). Leon County has an agreement with Airbnb, HomeAway, VRBO and TripAdvisor to collect and remit the tourist tax; bookings taken any other way must be registered and reported to the Leon County Tax Collector.

What does Airbnb management cost in Tallahassee?

Tallahassee short-term management is 18–25% of booking revenue, set out in writing before you commit. A free rental projection comes back to you within one business day.
