STRP Compliance Inspections 

Starting at $199!

What Is An STRP Inspection?

If you’re planning to operate a short-term rental property (STRP) in Tennessee—especially in cities like Nashville—you’re required to pass a Short-Term Rental Property Inspection as part of the licensing process.

An STRP inspection ensures your property complies with local codes and safety standards designed to protect guests, neighbors, and the surrounding community. Without a completed and approved inspection, you cannot legally operate your short-term rental.

At Hill’s Top Home Inspections, we specialize in STRP compliance inspections that help you get approved quickly, stay in business, and give your guests a safe and secure place to stay.

What We Inspect

Our STRP inspections are designed to meet the requirements set by local government authorities like Metro Nashville Codes Department and similar agencies throughout Tennessee.

We focus on health, safety, and code compliance, including:

✅ Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Detectors

  • Installed in every bedroom, hallway, and common area

  • Proper functionality and power source (hardwired or battery)

✅ Egress and Emergency Escape Routes

  • Bedroom windows meet minimum size and accessibility standards

  • Unobstructed exit paths

  • Exterior doors are operational and easy to open

✅ Address Numbers

  • Clearly visible from the street (minimum 4" numbers required in many areas)

✅ Stairways, Railings, and Decks

  • Handrails and guardrails securely installed

  • No trip hazards, loose boards, or unsafe elevations

✅ Electrical and Mechanical Safety

  • No exposed wiring or overloaded circuits

  • HVAC systems are operational and in safe condition

✅ General Safety and Maintenance

  • No major hazards like mold, pests, or structural issues

  • All appliances are in safe, working order

 

Why It Matters

Operating without a proper inspection and license can result in:

  • Fines or legal action

  • Removal from rental platforms like Airbnb or VRBO

  • Revocation of your STRP permit

A compliant inspection gives you:

  • Peace of mind

  • Faster approval

  • A safer environment for your guests

  • Increased trust from online rental platforms and reviewers

What You'll Receive

After the inspection, we’ll provide a detailed digital report that includes:

  • Notes on all safety and code compliance checks

  • Photos of any issues that need to be corrected

  • A clear checklist you can use for STRP licensing

  • Verification for local authorities if requested

We’ll work with you and your contractor or property manager to ensure everything’s ready for final city approval.
