Basic verification complete
Short-term rentals are currently not explicitly permitted in Newark's residential zoning districts, though the city requires a general rental permit for all leased properties.
Score: 6 (restrictive)
While the City of Newark does not have a specific 'Short-Term Rental' ordinance, it requires all rental properties to obtain an annual Rental Permit and pass safety inspections. Host-present rentals of up to two rooms are permitted without a permit, but renting an entire home for less than 31 days is technically not an explicitly allowed use under current residential zoning. Operators must also collect a combined 7.5% in state and local taxes.
