Market Overview
Short-term rental performance figures for Hyattsville reflect the Washington, D.C. metro STR market, a regional dataset. Every performance number on this page describes that metro market rather than Hyattsville alone. In September 2026, the average daily rate across all listings was $170, occupancy was 65.6%, and average monthly revenue per listing was $3,036. Compared with September 2025, occupancy rose 5.9%, ADR rose 0.6%, and revenue rose 9.7%, so the latest gain came mostly from more booked nights rather than higher prices. Entire places averaged $208 per night, and monthly revenue was $3,641 for entire places, $3,042 for houses, and $3,007 for apartments. Across the nine months of 2026 reported so far, the metro averaged 66.1% occupancy, a $171 ADR and $3,127 in monthly revenue, ahead of the full 2025 figures of 64.3% occupancy, a $167 ADR and $3,038 in monthly revenue. Summing the typical monthly profile gives annual revenue of $30,099 per listing. Hyattsville itself is a small inner-ring suburb of Washington in Prince George’s County, with a population of 20,966, along the Route 1 and Rhode Island Avenue corridor. It anchors the Gateway Arts District and has no published tourist-volume figures. Most visitation is regional and day-trip, tied to galleries, breweries and dining, with Metro access at the Prince George’s Plaza and West Hyattsville stations and proximity to the University of Maryland in College Park and downtown D.C. Bedroom, channel and listing-type counts are tracked at a shared regional level rather than uniquely for Hyattsville, so this profile omits them. Investors should treat the numbers as a regional benchmark and weigh them against the strict local licensing rules described below.

Short-Term Rental Regulations
Short-term rentals are legal in Hyattsville, but the rules are among the strictest an investor will encounter. The host must live in the property: a primary residence is required, with proof of ownership and a homestead property tax credit, so non-owner-occupied investment STRs are effectively barred. Operators need dual licensing, a Short-Term Rental License from Prince George’s County’s Department of Permitting, Inspections and Enforcement (about $150, renewed annually) plus a City of Hyattsville residential rental license, which is renewed annually and triggers a property inspection. Owner-occupied listings may host up to 180 days per calendar year. Operational limits include no more than 8 guests at a time, no more than 3 guests per bedroom, at least one off-street parking space per 3 overnight guests, at least $1,000,000 in liability insurance, and working life-safety devices. Where an HOA applies, its approval is required. The property must clear county codes with no outstanding taxes, liens or violations. An applicant with a complete application may operate for up to 90 days while it is reviewed. A 7% county transient occupancy tax applies to stays of 89 nights or fewer and is collected by Airbnb, on top of Maryland’s 6% state sales tax, roughly 13% combined. Enforcement is moderate and complaint driven, through the city reporting line at 301-985-5032. Penalties include license denial or revocation and bars from the program. Maryland’s Comptroller increased scrutiny of STR tax collection in 2025, but no major licensing change was identified in the last 24 months.
Market Comparison
The Washington, D.C. metro STR market posts occupancy of 65.6% and an ADR of $170, with entire places at $208, professionally managed listings at $210 and luxury listings at $375. The result is a market that fills reliably at moderate rates. Revenue growth of 9.7% year over year is led by occupancy, not rate. Local conditions shape the picture for Hyattsville: it is a day-trip and regional destination rather than a resort market, with demand tied to D.C. access, Metro stations and the University of Maryland rather than tourist attractions, and its owner-occupancy requirement and 180-night cap limit how much of the regional performance a host can actually capture. The metro market scores 78.3 on rental demand and 83.9 on seasonality, but only 49.8 on investability, which fits the regulatory constraints. Operator rankings are tracked at a shared regional level rather than uniquely for Hyattsville, so this profile omits them.
