View Houston market analysis →The Surge Take: Cloverleaf
Cloverleaf scores 54.5/100 on Surge's STR market score, ranking #37 of 53 Houston-area submarkets we track. That's in the lower tier of the Houston market on our score, which usually reflects thinner guest demand. Deals here need to be underwritten conservatively — the entry price has to do the heavy lifting. Average listings gross $29,990/year, roughly in line with the Houston metro average.
The revenue profile is a $199 average daily rate at 48% occupancy (RevPAR $82). 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.
On the regulatory side, Cloverleaf falls under Unincorporated Harris County, which is currently permissive: No zoning authority; counties cannot restrict STRs in Texas; HOA/deed restrictions only risk. Low regulatory friction is a real advantage — just verify HOA and deed restrictions, which apply regardless of city or county rules.

Cloverleaf STR Regulations
PermissiveJurisdiction: Unincorporated Harris County · Last verified 2026-07-14
No zoning authority; counties cannot restrict STRs in Texas; HOA/deed restrictions only risk
Under Texas law, counties including Harris County have no zoning authority over unincorporated residential areas and therefore cannot ban or restrict STRs through ordinance. The City of Houston's STR registration requirement (effective January 2024, $275 annually) does NOT apply to unincorporated Harris County. Harris County may collect Hotel Occupancy Tax in unincorporated areas. The practical STR risk is from private HOA/deed restrictions enforced through civil litigation, not government regulation.
- •No county STR permit or registration
- •Texas state HOT registration required
- •Harris County HOT registration may apply (unincorporated areas)
- •Check HOA/deed restrictions—critical in platted subdivisions
HOA covenants and deed restrictions can prohibit short-term rentals regardless of Unincorporated Harris County rules — always review them before purchasing. Surge handles permitting, registration, and Hotel Occupancy Tax compliance for every property we manage.
