Can NYC Condo rent as Short Term Furnish Rentals?

We have many investor condo owners asked us this question. The simple answer is, it depends on the condo building's house rules. We often represent many investor condo owners to secure qualified tenants so we have many experiences with different condo building and each building has different criteria and policies.


When trying to rent out Manhattan condo buildings, it is importan to keep in mind that buildings have their own house rules that list all the regulations such as what is the minimum terms of a lease (12 months or shorter), pet policy (dog or cat, pet weight), renovation policy and etc. Many of the condo buildings will required the owner to rent the unit minimum of 6 months to 12 months, this way they can keep the building quality of living higher and able to control the occupants and who is coming and going out of the condo building.


Can NYC Condo Rent as Short Term Furnish Rentals?
Generally, the weekly rental will not allowed in traditional condo buildings since the building prefer not to have too much of transient stays. We also recommend the owners to rent the condo for 12 months to keep the rental income on the steady and consistent basis.

It would be rare for a Rental to be listed less than a year here on Long Island Morgan. In NYC, I can see that being the case also to keep it less transient...

Good morning, Morgan -- with the rise of AirBNB(and others) people might assume your condo could be used as a short term furnished rental.  You're right to say this will be covered in the governing documents of the association and typically the answer is NO.

Hi Morgan - you've outlined the common practice with condos here in San Francisco and on the Peninsula and Silicon Valley. It's an important aspect of condo ownership that needs to be addressed with your buyers.

More condos than ever are requiring board packages to minimize risk in the building- so this another consideration. In my own building, we implemented a sublet fee for each new lease (excluding re-newals), which decreases the incentive for people to do short leases such as Airbnb.
