Market Overview
This profile uses the Phoenix metro STR market framing for every performance figure, because Avondale’s short-term rental metrics are published as a shared series for the Phoenix metropolitan area. Avondale-specific details, such as regulations, housing costs and local demand drivers, are cited separately. As of September 2026, the Phoenix metro STR market posted an average daily rate of $189, occupancy of 57.9% and average monthly revenue of $2,841 per listing. Year over year, occupancy rose 3.6%, ADR rose 4.6% and revenue rose 2.1%, so the market is growing on both price and demand, though revenue is climbing more slowly than its two components.

Bedroom counts, booking channels and listing-type counts are tracked at a shared regional level rather than uniquely for Avondale, so this profile omits them.

Short-Term Rental Regulations
Short-term rentals are permitted in Avondale, but a license is required. The city’s first STR ordinance, No. 2060-1023, took effect February 1, 2024, and penalties began April 30, 2024 after a 90-day grace period. Operators need a City Short-Term Rental License, which renews annually. The license fee is not published in the available sources. There is no owner-occupancy or primary-residence requirement and no annual cap on rental nights. No specific zoning exclusion zones were identified, and the ordinance applies city-wide to any residential property rented for periods under 30 days. Operating requirements include a minimum $500,000 liability insurance policy, notification of adjacent neighbors, background checks on adult guests (satisfied if the booking platform performs them), and prominent display of the license number and an emergency contact inside the property and in all advertising. Events and parties are prohibited, and properties must meet fire, building and safety codes. Penalties range from $500 to $3,500 per violation, and repeat offenders can have licenses suspended. Enforcement severity is rated strict. The combined occupancy tax load is about 11.77%, made up of Arizona TPT at 5.5%, Maricopa County excise tax of about 1.77%, Avondale city TPT of about 2.5% and a 2.0% Avondale bed tax. Hosts must also hold an Arizona TPT license and include the TPT number in listings. Confirm current rules with the city before buying.
Market Comparison
Seasonality shapes how the Phoenix metro STR market performs through the year. In March the ADR reaches $274 and occupancy reaches 76.3%, while February ($250) and April ($228) also post strong rates. From June through September, ADR falls to between $153 and $171, and occupancy stays between 57.8% and 59.8%. Year over year growth of 3.6% in occupancy and 4.6% in ADR suggests the market is gaining ground on both measures. Professionally managed listings at $253 and luxury listings at $463 sit well above the $189 all-listings ADR, so quality and management are the clearest path to above-average pricing. Top operator names are tracked at a shared regional level rather than uniquely for Avondale, so this profile omits them. The market suits investors who value steady occupancy and can manage costs through the summer trough.
