Unofficial. Eligibility is derived from the City of Bend's public open-data and can lag or change; always verify directly with the City of Bend before making any purchase or permit decision.

How short-term-rental rules work in Bend, Oregon

Bend regulates short-term rentals (Airbnb, VRBO, and similar) by land-use zone and applies a minimum separation distance between permitted rentals. Because of that buffer, two neighboring homes can have different answers — eligibility is decided parcel by parcel, which is why a per-address check is the only reliable way to know.
