Texas's Short-Term Rental License, Done For You.
Skip the bureaucracy, confusing local municipal codes, and endless paperwork. Our concierge service secures your licenses and HOT registrations so you can start earning legally in the Lone Star State.
Navigating Texas's regulations shouldn't be your full-time job.
Between dual-level Hotel Occupancy Tax (HOT) requirements, shifting city zoning laws, and strict HOA restrictions, obtaining a short-term rental license in Texas is a complex, multi-step process that delays your revenue.
We handle both the local municipal and state tax registrations, ensuring your dwelling is properly registered for the Hotel Occupancy Tax (HOT) required across the state.
Every Texas municipality is different. We navigate local zoning, assemble floor plans, manage fire inspection schedules, and secure local Certificates of Use.
Complete setup of your local municipal accounts for hotel occupancy tax (HOT) and specialized assessment districts required for compliance in Texas jurisdictions.

"VRL has been exactly what I was looking for to get my vacation rental set up and going in Austin. They were absolutely phenomenal and assisted me through the whole process and answered any questions I had about the local HOT setup. I can not say enough good things about this company. I highly recommend."
