Summary
Bill 24-033 establishes that, for property tax years commencing on or after January 1, 2026, "short-term rental units" may be classified as either residential real property or lodging property. If, during the previous property tax year, a short-term rental unit was leased for "short-term stays" for more than 90 days, then it is classified as lodging property. The market approach shall be the sole method for determining the actual value of a short-term rental unit that is classified as lodging property. Notably, the property tax assessment rate in 2023 for residential properties was 6.765% and, in 2024, the assessment rate for lodging properties is 29%.
