Denver requires a Short Term Rental license tied to the host's primary residence, and the license file is public. Listings here are claimed by their hosts and checked against that file: 2,062 licenses are active out of 2,329 in the current city file. Listings show neighborhood and ZIP only.
A License verified badge means the permit number on the claim matched an active license in the City of Denver file. Featured listings appear first.
Denver licenses are public record. The City and County of Denver publishes its Short Term Rental licenses on the Colorado open data portal, sourced from Denver Excise and Licenses. We pull that file, which is the same data behind our permit lookup and ZIP stats.
Primary residence rule. A Denver Short Term Rental license attaches to the host's primary residence, and the license number must appear in every ad. A listing in this directory has had its number checked against the file; the badge is a factual match, not a paid endorsement. Verification is never sold: it comes free with the Basic listing.
