The Surge Take: Irving

Irving scores 71.1/100 on Surge's STR market score, ranking #28 of 55 Dallas-area submarkets we track. That's mid-pack for the Dallas market: not a headline submarket, but often where value hides — mid-tier areas typically have lower acquisition costs and less STR competition than the trophy neighborhoods. The average listing here grosses $34,723/year — about 30% below the Dallas metro average, so unit selection and design matter more than usual.

The revenue profile is a $186 average daily rate at 64% occupancy (RevPAR $95). That's a healthy mid-market ADR — the sweet spot for durable demand from both leisure and work travel. As a suburban submarket, demand skews toward families, relocations, and medical or project stays — larger homes tend to outperform.

Regulation-wise, Irving falls under Irving, which allows short-term rentals with compliance requirements — STRs allowed with $200 annual registration; enforcement tightening in 2026. Registration-style regimes are manageable and tend to thin out casual competition, which can favor professional operators.

STRs allowed with $200 annual registration; enforcement tightening in 2026

Irving requires annual registration ($200) for all STRs under Ch. 8, Art. XI, in effect since October 2022 and updated by Ord. 2025-11095 (April 2025). Multifamily STRs now also must register. A 24-hour minimum stay, $1M insurance, and a local agent with 1-hour response are required. As of a February 2026 city council work session, additional regulations (annual inspections, parking minimums of 4+ spaces, lease restrictions) are pending adoption. HOT is 7% city + 6% state.

HOA covenants and deed restrictions can prohibit short-term rentals regardless of Irving rules — always review them before purchasing. Surge handles permitting, registration, and Hotel Occupancy Tax compliance for every property we manage.
