Registration Rules: Brentwood vs Pittsburg

Short-term rentals of under 30 consecutive days in Brentwood are subject to the City's Transient Occupancy Tax registration and business license requirements. Operators must register with the Finance Department, obtain a TOT certificate, and collect and remit the 10 percent Transient Occupancy Tax monthly. Operators should also check their zoning district and any HOA CC&Rs before listing.

Pittsburg does not have a dedicated short-term rental permit program, but STR operators must still register for a City of Pittsburg business license, collect and remit the 10 percent Transient Occupancy Tax, and comply with general zoning and building code requirements. Operators should verify current requirements with the Planning Division before listing a property on Airbnb, Vrbo, or similar platforms.
