What neighborhoods are best for short-term rental income in this area?

Pasco County is an increasingly popular STR market offering affordability, favorable zoning, and steady guest demand. Cities like New Port Richey, Wesley Chapel, and Land O’ Lakes cater to a mix of beachgoers, medical travelers, and snowbirds. Unincorporated areas allow STRs with minimal restrictions, and real estate prices are lower than neighboring counties, creating a lower barrier to entry. With ongoing development, new construction, and infrastructure expansion, Pasco is positioned for strong appreciation. For investors looking for cash flow and value in one of Tampa Bay’s fastest-growing regions, Pasco County is a smart, strategic STR location.

Are there Airbnb restrictions or license requirements in Pasco County?

Pasco County supports short-term rentals in unincorporated areas, requiring hosts to obtain a local business tax receipt and register for state lodging and tax licenses. The county does not have an STR-specific ordinance but enforces general zoning, occupancy, and nuisance rules. Most residential zones allow STRs, though HOAs often restrict them. Cities within Pasco County, like Zephyrhills or New Port Richey, may have their own codes. Overall, Pasco is considered STR-friendly and is growing in popularity with investors due to lower barriers to entry.

What makes a house — or other property types like condos or townhomes — ideal for short-term rentals in this market?

In Pasco County, top STRs include homes in unincorporated zones near the water or popular parks. Single-family homes with fenced yards, screened lanais, and ample parking are well-suited for family stays. Condos may work in low-restriction communities. Proximity to Tampa and affordability make Pasco a growing market for STR investors.

Can you show reviews or data on successful Airbnb investments nearby?

Yes, we frequently analyze regional Airbnb data from platforms like AirDNA and PriceLabs to identify high-performing properties across Florida. In popular areas such as Orlando, Tampa Bay, and along the 30A corridor, many short-term rentals consistently achieve occupancy rates between 50–67%, with average daily rates (ADR) ranging from $222 to $289, depending on the season and location. For instance, Orlando’s short-term rentals average a 51% occupancy rate with an ADR of $243.30, leading to an annual revenue of approximately $21,516.

We track key performance indicators including RevPAR (Revenue Per Available Room), booking lead time, and guest reviews to benchmark potential properties. This data-driven approach allows us to provide investor clients with anonymized case studies and aggregated review trends, offering insights into what drives success in different zones throughout Florida.

For example, in Tampa Bay, there has been a notable increase in suburban short-term rentals, with listings growing by 25% last year. However, this surge in supply has outpaced demand, leading to an 11% drop in occupancy rates across the region.

If you're interested, we can provide more detailed data or case studies tailored to specific Florida locations to assist in your investment decisions.

Do you partner with property managers or cohosting services based here?

We don’t outsource property management — we handle it in-house through Home Team Luxury Rentals , part of the Rise Collective. As one of the fastest-growing and highest-rated independently owned property management companies in the U.S., Home Team delivers full-service short-term rental management with a focus on performance, guest experience, and investor satisfaction.
