Boulder City does not require STR liability insurance because STRs are banned citywide. Long-term landlords should carry standard landlord or rental dwelling policies.
Cities operating under Nevada's AB 363 (2021) STR framework typically require each licensed STR to carry at least 500,000 dollars of liability insurance or platform-provided coverage. Boulder City adopted no such requirement because it has instead banned STRs outright as of March 26, 2024. Property owners renting for 30 or more consecutive days are not subject to STR insurance mandates and usually rely on landlord dwelling policies (DP-3 or equivalent) combined with tenant renters insurance. Homeowners should verify that their standard policy covers any rental activity, including long-term leases, and should consult their insurer about endorsements if they share space under allowed home-sharing structures.
No city-imposed insurance penalties; STR operation fines up to 500 dollars per day for any illegal rental.
