Short-Term Rental Regulations
Mansfield permits short-term rentals under its general rental-registration and inspection framework (Chapter 158, Regulatory Compliance Department) rather than a dedicated STR ordinance. Operators must register annually, obtain and post a Certificate of Occupancy, and pass annual inspections covering building, health, and life-safety standards.
The annual registration fee is approximately $15 per dwelling unit or guest room per year, one of the lowest in the region. Registrations run January 1 through December 31 and are due by January 1 or within 30 days of invoice. Reinspection fees (approximately $150 per reinspection) and after-hours inspection fees also apply.
There is no owner-occupancy or primary-residence requirement, and no annual night cap. Short-term rentals are defined as rentals of fewer than 30 consecutive days.
On taxes: guests pay a 7% local hotel occupancy tax plus the Texas state 6% hotel occupancy tax, for a combined rate of 13%. Operators must remit the state portion to the Texas Comptroller and the local portion to the City of Mansfield.
Enforcement is progressive and rated moderate: violations escalate from probation to suspension (blocking new tenants, with ongoing monthly fees) to revocation (cease operations, vacate within 60 days). Violations are also classified as Class C misdemeanors with fines up to $2,000 per offense. The overall regulatory climate is investor-friendly with low fees and no occupancy restrictions, but compliance is required.
Market Comparison
Mansfield’s 58.7% occupancy in April 2026 slightly exceeds the U.S. STR median of approximately 55%. Its $179 ADR is below the national median of roughly $220, reflecting suburban DFW pricing rather than premium destination rates.
The composite market score of 90.5 out of 100 places Mansfield among the strongest secondary DFW suburban markets. Seasonality (97.7) is near-maximum. Investability (78.3) and rental demand (81.7) are both well above average. Revenue growth (69.0) is positive but not exceptional, consistent with the mild ADR compression.
Among top operators, Evolve leads with 176 listings and 7,054 reviews at a 4.70 rating. Landing, Inc. operates 159 listings at a 3.98 rating. Landing (a related brand) adds 100 listings at a 3.29 rating. Stays by Monaco holds 91 listings with 1,881 reviews at a 4.19 rating.
