Short-term rentals (stays under 30 days, or 90 days starting late 2025) are prohibited in residential neighborhoods like Waipahu unless the property holds a legacy Nonconforming Use Certificate (NUC).
You generally cannot start a new short-term rental in Waipahu because it is a residential area and the city only issues new permits for resort zones. In residential zones, any rental must be for at least 30 consecutive days (increasing to 90 days in September 2025), and operating an unauthorized short-term rental can lead to fines of up to $10,000 per day.
