Rental Property Regulations
![](/webres/Image/community-development/Rental%20Website%20Photo.JPG)
The City of Waverly requires minimum maintenance standards and maximum occupancy levels of all residential rental properties observed within the City. No person shall lease, rent or otherwise allow a rental unit within the City to be occupied without first obtaining a rental registration permit from the City and designating a responsible local agent.
Please submit the Rental Housing Registration Application and the Rental Housing Self-Inspection Checklist to register. Once registered, a renewal application will be due once every three (3) years from the initial year of submittal. (See Chapter 91, Rental Housing Code in City of Waverly Code.)
There is a charge for registering, but no charge for the inspection sheet or renewals that are submitted in a timely matter. Additional self-inspection checklists can be found here.
