Letting in New York
Rules and licensing
Local Law 18 requires host registration and, in practice, prohibits letting an entire home for fewer than 30 days. The host must be present and no more than two guests are permitted. Short-term whole-unit letting is effectively over.
Tourist tax
City and state occupancy taxes apply and are substantial.
How the year is shaped
Steady all year with peaks in autumn and around the Christmas period. January and February are the softest months.
Who books here
By regulation this is now a 30-day-plus market. Model it as medium-term letting; the nightly figures here describe a market that no longer legally exists for whole units.
Short-term rental rules change often and can differ by district, and building or condominium rules may restrict letting regardless of what the city permits. Treat this as orientation, not legal advice, and confirm the current position with the local authority before letting.
