Challenging to Investors
Short-term rentals are explicitly allowed in Bowie but require both city and county licenses, inspections, and multiple compliance steps. The owner‑occupied requirement, strict caps (180 total nights; 90 non‑hosted), occupancy and parking limits, plus dual permitting and fees create meaningful barriers. Investor risk rises given the detailed compliance burden and potential for enforcement actions.
