Coweta County runs no registration program for long-term rentals — a landlord needs no county permit or inspection to lease a home. The county has no dedicated short-term rental license either, though STR hosts still owe zoning compliance and the local hotel/motel tax.
Georgia has no statewide rental-registration law, and Coweta County requires none for ordinary long-term rentals; a landlord owes the county no rental permit, filing, or routine inspection to lease a house or apartment. The county has not adopted a dedicated short-term rental registration the way some metro Atlanta counties have, so an STR host follows the property's zoning rules and remits the local hotel/motel excise tax under O.C.G.A. §48-13-50 on stays under thirty days — a live issue around Senoia's film-tourism market. Every landlord still owes Georgia's Title 44, Chapter 7 duties: return the security deposit within one month with an itemized statement under §44-7-34, and keep the unit habitable.
Long-term rentals carry no county registration penalty. A short-term rental that ignores zoning or fails to collect and remit the hotel/motel tax can face code-enforcement action and tax liability with penalties.
