Why Encino Is a Prime Market for Airbnb Hosting

Large Homes, Strong Demand, and a Peaceful 91316 Zip Code

Encino is known for its wide residential lots, scenic foothills, and easy access to both the Westside and the San Fernando Valley. This unique positioning attracts a steady flow of renters—ranging from relocating families and professionals to international visitors seeking longer stays.

The 91316 zip code draws consistent interest due to its upscale homes and lower density, giving guests more privacy and space than West LA. Whether your home is tucked into the hills or near Ventura Blvd, Encino remains one of the most attractive neighborhoods for monthly and short-term rentals.

Airbnb and Monthly Rental Management Services

Everything Handled, So You Don’t Have To

Our Encino Airbnb management services are built around ease, efficiency, and results. We handle every part of the guest journey:

  • Dynamic pricing via PriceLabs
  • Professional photography and listing optimization
  • Late-night guest support and messaging
  • Review management and reputation building
  • Photo-audited cleanings through Turno

With Open Air Homes, you get hands-off hosting with full transparency.

Monthly Rentals Offer Flexibility and Stability

Why Many Encino Homeowners Choose 30+ Day Stays

Short-term rentals are allowed in Encino only if the home is your primary residence and permitted by the City of LA. For second homes or investment properties, monthly rentals are a smart, fully legal alternative.

Encino’s peaceful, residential atmosphere is ideal for guests staying a month or longer. From families in between homes to professionals on assignment, these guests bring stability, lower wear and tear, and reliable income.

Short-Term Rental Strategy for Primary Homes

STR Permits in LA and When They Make Sense

If your Encino home is your primary residence, you may qualify for LA’s Home-Sharing Permit. This lets you host short-term stays legally, starting with a 120-night annual limit.

We help you navigate the STR application process, optimize your calendar, and price your home strategically—often earning 20–30% more than traditional long-term leases.

Everywhere Exposure: Airbnb and Beyond

Maximize Visibility Across All Major Platforms

Omni-channel exposure on Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, Google Travel, plus our direct site

Your Encino property won’t just appear on Airbnb. We syndicate your listing across all major travel sites, ensuring maximum visibility and increased booking potential year-round.

Homeowners choose us for our 20–25% commission model, transparent platform fee, and hands-on approach to maximizing income with minimal hassle.

Why Homeowners in Encino Choose Open Air Homes


💬 List Your Home FAQ

1. Are short-term rentals legal in Encino?

Yes — as part of the City of Los Angeles, Encino follows the Home Sharing Ordinance. You may host short-term rentals under 30 days if the home is your primary residence and registered with a Home Sharing Permit. For second homes or investment properties, Open Air Homes manages fully legal monthly rentals (30+ nights) with no permit required.

We manage everything from listing creation, photography, and dynamic pricing to guest communication, cleanings, maintenance, and CAR-compliant leasing. Whether your Encino home is offered as a monthly rental or short-term stay, we handle the full guest and property lifecycle.

Yes. Open Air Homes is a licensed California brokerage (DRE #02164159) and can manage 12-month leases through our in-house leasing division. We list homes on the MLS, screen tenants, and draft leases using official CAR forms. Many owners alternate between long-term leases and monthly stays depending on personal use.

Encino attracts families, business travelers, digital nomads, and entertainment professionals. Guests are often looking for larger homes with backyards, pools, and privacy. Proximity to Ventura Blvd, the 405, and Studio City makes Encino especially popular for those seeking space without sacrificing access.

Furnished rentals in Encino can earn 20–30% more than traditional unfurnished leases. Homes with ADUs, views, or remodeled kitchens and baths tend to earn premium rates. We adjust pricing seasonally to reflect demand and availability.

We take into account how often you want to use your home, local regulations, and your financial goals. Some Encino homeowners rent year-round, while others block dates for personal use and rent monthly the rest of the year. We create a custom plan around your preferences and compliance needs.

Our monthly rental management includes PriceLabs pricing, professional photography, guest messaging, lease drafting, cleaning coordination, and maintenance oversight. You stay hands-off, while we protect your home and income with a brokerage-backed, hospitality-driven model.

We combine data from PriceLabs, Airbnb performance, Zillow comps, and over a decade of internal booking history. Our Broker of Record signs off on each lease amount to ensure full legal compliance. Homes south of Ventura Blvd or near the golf course often perform best.

With a 4.9+ Airbnb rating, a licensed brokerage, and over 14 years of experience, Open Air Homes offers legal, design-forward rental management. Homeowners choose us for our full-service approach, legal protection, and the ability to manage everything under one trusted brand.
