Market Overview
Manor is a bedroom suburb about 12 miles northeast of downtown Austin. Its short-term rental performance is tracked at a shared Central Texas level that also covers nearby towns. Every performance figure on this page describes the Central Texas (Austin area) STR market rather than Manor alone. In September 2026 that market averaged an ADR of $220, occupancy of 59.3% and average revenue of $3,522 for the month. Compared with September 2025, occupancy rose 11.0%, ADR fell 4.3% and revenue grew 15.2%, so the gain came from more booked nights rather than higher rates. Year to date, 2026 shows 59.7% occupancy, a $214 ADR and $3,533 in average monthly revenue across nine months, ahead of 2025 at 56.3% occupancy, a $216 ADR and $3,409 in monthly revenue. The strongest year in the series was 2021 at 63.8% occupancy and $3,736 in monthly revenue, while 2017 was the low point for revenue at $2,245. Demand in Manor itself comes mostly from business travel, relocation and house-hunting trips, contractors, and overflow lodging for Austin events, tied to nearby employers such as Samsung’s Taylor campus and Tesla. Leisure draws are modest and include ShadowGlen Golf Club, city parks and a flea market. The J. Lorraine Ghost Town, the area’s signature attraction, closed permanently in October 2024. No annual visitor count is published for Manor, because tourism data is aggregated at the Travis County and Greater Austin level. Bedroom, channel and listing-type counts are tracked at a shared regional level rather than uniquely for Manor, so this profile omits them. All figures here reflect data through September 2026.

Short-Term Rental Regulations
Short-term rentals are permitted in Manor, but a permit is required. The City of Manor regulates short-term rentals under Ordinance No. 799, which requires anyone who owns or operates a short-term rental to obtain a city Short-Term Rental Permit before listing. The city defines a short-term rental as any house, condo or residential unit rented for fewer than 30 days at a time, across platforms such as Airbnb and VRBO. Hotels, motels and bed and breakfasts are excluded. The permit requirement is the recent change on record, and it applies to every unit rented under 30 days. Lodging is also subject to hotel occupancy tax. Manor levies a local hotel occupancy tax of 7% on top of the Texas state rate of 6%, for a combined 13% on rentals under 30 days. Stays of 30 days or longer by permanent residents are exempt. Specific zoning-district eligibility, occupancy caps, parking and inspection conditions are set in the ordinance but could not be independently verified from a machine-readable source. Enforcement is rated moderate. Before buying or listing, investors should obtain Ordinance No. 799 directly from the City of Manor Development Services or its Biz101 portal, confirm the current permit process, and register for hotel occupancy tax with both the City and the Texas Comptroller. Rules can change, so verify with the city before committing capital.
Market Comparison
Compared with a year earlier, the Central Texas market posted September 2026 occupancy of 59.3%, up 11.0%, and a $220 ADR, down 4.3%. Year-to-date 2026 occupancy of 59.7% sits above the 56.3% recorded for 2025, while the $214 year-to-date ADR runs slightly below the $216 for 2025. The market’s revenue of $3,522 in September 2026 is up 15.2% from a year earlier, so the advantage comes from filling more nights rather than charging more. Entire-place listings at $242 and professionally managed listings at $261 exceed the all-listings ADR of $220, which shows where the rate premium is found. Top operator names and listing counts are tracked at a shared regional level rather than uniquely for Manor, so this profile omits them. For investors, the takeaway is that Manor sits in a market with rising demand and softer pricing, with the main upside in well-run entire-home listings and the main constraint being a permit and a 13% lodging tax.
