New short-term rental laws go into effect for Paradise Valley homeowners

Main takeaways:

• It is a violation to make excessive noise from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. — or 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. in the summer under certain circumstances.
• Town officials will make publicly available the rental owner’s name and contact information, the property’s physical address and phone number, and the local contact’s and emergency contact’s information.
• Booking information will also need to be shared with the town or owners will face a $150 fee per day. 
• To ensure the rental is not being used for inappropriate purposes, owners must now perform background checks on all renters to ensure there are no registered sex offenders at the property.
