Irving STR hosts should maintain adequate liability insurance. While the city does not mandate a specific coverage amount, platforms like Airbnb provide host protection insurance.
Irving's STR ordinance focuses on registration, tax compliance, and operating standards rather than mandating a specific insurance coverage amount. However, hosts are strongly advised to carry adequate liability insurance. Platforms such as Airbnb and VRBO provide host protection insurance programs, but these may not cover all scenarios. Texas law does not mandate specific STR insurance requirements at the state level. Hosts should consult with their homeowner's insurance provider, as standard policies may exclude commercial short-term rental use. The STR registration process requires hosts to sign an attestation regarding the property's habitability.
No specific fine for lacking insurance. Hosts bear personal liability for uninsured incidents.
