Victorville has no general residential rental registration program. Landlords need a city business license and must meet state habitability rules. Short-term rentals have separate permitting.
Unlike some California cities, Victorville has not adopted a citywide residential rental registry or mandatory periodic inspection program for long-term rentals. However, any person engaged in the business of renting housing within city limits must obtain a Victorville business license and renew it annually. Gross-receipts reporting applies per the business license ordinance. The city may inspect rental units in response to tenant complaints under its property maintenance and housing code authority. Landlords remain subject to state habitability standards in Civil Code 1941 and 1941.1 and must provide required disclosures including mold, bedbugs, lead-based paint for pre-1978 units, and Megan's Law. Properties operated as short-term vacation rentals fall under separate permitting rules through the city. Failure to maintain a business license can result in penalties, back-tax assessments, and citations under the Municipal Code.
