SERVING Nyack
Founder-led stewardship for Nyack rental owners
The Village of Nyack has no short-term-rental law: no STR permit, registration, night cap, or ban appears anywhere in the Village Code, and the zoning chapter defines no "transient" or minimum-stay terms for dwellings, so under-30-night rentals operate legal-by-default (local press confirms STRs are allowed in Nyack, unlike neighboring Orangetown and Clarkstown).
WHY OWNERS CHOOSE US
What Nyack owners get with Palisade
The rules, confirmed before you list
We read Nyack's ordinance from the primary source and put the citation on the page. Where a permit path is capped, waitlisted, or closed, you hear that before you spend money rather than after.
Inside the Rockland County footprint
We hold the short-term rental rules for every mapped town in Rockland County, not just this one. You can read Nyack's entry and its neighbours' before you ever speak to us.
Operated to one standard
Pricing, guest communication, turnovers and upkeep run on one system. You get founder-led oversight and clear monthly reporting, not a hands-off channel manager.
GO OR NO GO
The operator's read on Nyack
Can I run a short-term rental in Nyack, NY?
Go, with conditions. The rule that decides it: Owner-occupied hosting has an explicit path: Bed-and-breakfast (owner lives on premises, max 6 guest rooms, breakfast only, standards at sec. 360-3.2, incl. owner-occupied primary dwelling, no in-room cooking, one sign max 9 sq ft) is a special-permit use in every zoning district except the Hospital district, including all single-family and multifamily residential districts.
What does Nyack actually require?
Interpretive risk: sec. 360-3.1C provides that any use not specifically permitted is deemed prohibited, with the Building Inspector classifying new/unlisted uses; the dwelling-unit definition excludes boarding houses, hotels, inns, and lodging, so a commercial whole-home STR could be recharacterized as an unlisted lodging use on complaint. Larger lodging: Inn (up to 10 guest rooms) is permitted by right in DMU-1, DMU-2, and CC and by special permit in RMU, OMU, WF, and M; Hotel/motel (over 10 rooms) is by right in CC and by special permit in DMU-1, DMU-2, WF, and M; both are prohibited in all residential districts. Ch. 267 (Property Ownership Registration Law): an owner residing outside the village of any property other than a single-family residence must file annually (by Jan 31) with the Building Department the name of a Rockland County-resident agent authorized to accept service. The governing text is Village of Nyack Code Ch. 360 (Zoning), secs. 360-3.1, 360-3.2, Art. VI (Definitions); Ch. 267 (Property, Registration of).
What stands in the way in Nyack?
No cap, night ceiling or owner-occupancy requirement is recorded for Nyack. Among towns that permit short-term rentals at all, that is the easier end.
What does it cost to get permitted in Nyack?
Nyack's ordinance does not publish a fee schedule in the sources we hold. We confirm current fees with the municipality before you budget for them.
How long does approval take in Nyack?
Nyack's ordinance sets no published processing time, which is true of most towns in this region. We confirm the clerk's current turnaround before you commit to a date, because an unbooked opening season costs more than the permit does.
What would you do with a property in Nyack?
Workable. Confirm the current permit position with the municipality before you commit, then treat compliance as the first operating task rather than an afterthought. Most of the risk in Nyack is administrative, not structural.
