Night Caps: Glendale vs Peoria

Is there a limit on how many nights I can rent my Glendale Airbnb each year?

No. Arizona Revised Statutes Section 9-500.39 preempts cities and towns from limiting the duration or number of nights a property may be used as a vacation or short-term rental. Glendale City Code Section 29.1-41 follows that framework and imposes only registration, insurance, emergency-contact, and neighbor-notification requirements, not a night cap.

Can my HOA impose a minimum stay even though Glendale and Arizona do not?

Yes. State preemption under ARS 9-500.39 binds local governments, not private homeowner associations. CC&Rs in many Arrowhead Ranch, Sierra Verde, and other Glendale subdivisions impose minimum-stay rules (commonly 30 days) or outright STR bans that are enforceable as private contract terms. Check your HOA documents before listing, separate from city registration.

Does Peoria, AZ limit how many nights I can rent my Airbnb?

No. Peoria does not cap the number of nights per year a property may operate as a vacation rental. Arizona Revised Statutes Section 9-500.39 prohibits cities and towns from prohibiting short-term rentals or restricting them based on classification, use, or occupancy, which means Peoria cannot impose an annual nights cap, season restriction, or quota on STR permits. You still need a Peoria vacation rental permit, $500,000 of liability insurance, and TPT/lodging tax registration.

Can Peoria limit how many short-term rentals are in a neighborhood?

No. ARS 9-500.39 forecloses caps on the share of homes in a neighborhood that may be used as STRs and prohibits zoning classifications that single out vacation rentals. Peoria's program under City Code Section 11-150 is permit-based with no quota; the City must issue a permit to every applicant who satisfies the insurance, neighbor-notification, background-check, and posting requirements.
