You do NOT need a business license to rent out your home. You DO need to file with the State of Florida to pay the required transient rental tax on the monthly income you make unless you rent for 6 months or longer to one person or one couple. You still need to register with the State of Florida if you plan on renting out your home. You also need to inform your home insurance company that your home is now a rental.
