You must register your rental property every year. The deadline to register is July 1.

If you don't register and pay the fee by the deadline, we may charge you a penalty of $300 each month until you do. If you've never registered your property, please do so right away. You need to pay registration fees back to 2013.

You still have to register even if:

your property is vacant or being renovated

your tenants are relatives who are 18 or older and not on the deed, or

you don't collect rent on the units.

You don’t have to register if the property is:

owned by a City, state, or federal agency, or

it’s a rooming house, dorm, or lodging house (with a valid lodging license).

Once you register your property, we'll inspect it at least once every five years. Learn more about inspections.
