Alexandria

Alexandria requires a Short-Term Residential Rental Permit for all stays under 30 days, with distinct fees for owner-occupied and unoccupied properties.

If you rent your home for less than 30 days at a time and do so for more than 10 days a year, you must get a permit from the Department of Planning & Zoning. You'll need to install specific safety equipment, notify your neighbors by certified mail, and follow strict guest limits (usually 2 people per bedroom plus 2 extra, capped at 10 total).
