The Surge Take: Garden Acres

Garden Acres scores 84.2/100 on Surge's STR market score, ranking #18 of 31 Fort Worth-area submarkets we track. That's mid-pack for the Fort Worth 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 $32,898/year — about 36% below the Fort Worth metro average, so unit selection and design matter more than usual.

The revenue profile is a $188 average daily rate at 59% occupancy (RevPAR $90). 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, Garden Acres falls under Burleson, which allows short-term rentals with compliance requirements — Formal STR permit required (Chapter 14, Article XII); $150/year; annual inspection. Registration-style regimes are manageable and tend to thin out casual competition, which can favor professional operators.

Garden Acres STR Regulations

Regulated

Jurisdiction: Burleson · Last verified 2026-07-14

Formal STR permit required (Chapter 14, Article XII); $150/year; annual inspection

Burleson adopted a Short-Term Rental Registration ordinance (Chapter 14, Article XII) requiring all STR operators to obtain an annual permit ($150) before advertising or renting. Each rentable unit requires a separate permit. Operators must designate a 24-hr local contact, submit dimensioned floor plans with evacuation routes, and annually maintain fire extinguishers (independently inspected per Fire Code). Zoning compliance is required and some residential zones may restrict STRs. City HOT is 7% (filed quarterly) + 6% state = 13% total.
