Frequently Asked Questions

How much did typical St. Louis listings earn last year?

Typical St. Louis listings earned about $21,963 last year from 1,927 active rentals, AirROI trailing twelve months through July 2026. Average night $184, occupancy 42.9 percent, revenue per available night varies from that base, year over year plus 2.4 percent, active supply plus 5.2 percent. Keep Saint Charles and Innsbrook on their own lines rather than folding them into this figure.

When is St. Louis's strongest month?

March is the busiest revenue month, with May and June the other strong months. January is the slowest. Price and market the city's own calendar -- don't borrow a satellite town's peak season for a St. Louis listing.

Do I need a St. Louis STR permit in 2026?

Call the St. Louis License Collector at 314-622-4528 (1200 Market Street, City Hall Room 102-104; lco@stlouis-mo.gov). Ordinance 72095, effective February 23, 2026, requires a Short-Term Rental Business License and a quarterly 3 percent license fee on rent. Note that a court order has prohibited the city from enforcing the earlier Ordinance 71729 permit requirements, so don't cite that ordinance as current. Confirm the current requirement at that desk before you advertise -- a low-regulation label on a data platform is a scrape of listings, not a reading of the town file.

Is a 30-night minimum the same as occupancy?

No. 609 listings, 31.6 percent of 1,927 active rentals, set a 30-night minimum -- that's a platform stay-length setting, not an occupancy figure. Typical stay here is still 6.8 nights, booked about 38 days ahead.

Should I hire a manager in St. Louis and on the satellites?

Professionally managed share in St. Louis is 16.4 percent; Brick & Bed holds 43 listings on this extract. Saint Charles and Innsbrook reward different marketing copy than the city core, so don't buy one pitch for all three occasions.

Who books a St. Louis stay?

Most guests arrive from St. Louis, then Chicago. Typical stay is 6.8 nights, booked about 38 days ahead. Write the listing for the guest who actually typed St. Louis, and keep Saint Charles and Innsbrook captions separate from the city core.

Can I file Saint Charles as the St. Louis year?

No. St. Louis's average night was $184 on 1,927 listings. Saint Charles earned about $30,564 on 190 listings. Keep $21,963 on its own line rather than averaging the two.

What should a buyer packet carry?

Cite $21,963 on 1,927 city listings, supply plus 5.2 percent, and year over year plus 2.4 percent. Note the permit desk phone number, and keep Saint Charles and Innsbrook labeled separately rather than folded into the city figure.

Work with Crest & Cove Creative

Hosts marketing a St. Louis rental too often blend in Saint Charles's numbers or caption, diluting the city's own $21,963 story. That mash-up is what makes a listing sound generic instead of local.

Crest & Cove writes St. Louis-specific marketing copy, not loan paperwork -- we keep the city's own figures and permit desk separate from Saint Charles's.
