Home Rental Inspections
Placer County STRs
The scheduling calendars are rolling calendars. Each day, the 21st day will open inspection slots. The slots open at midnight, if the day is available.
You will need to check the calendar three weeks before your desired date to schedule for that date.
The majority of the time, inspection slots that open, are booked before 8 am each morning. Check as early in the morning as you can.
We are working to cancel any incorrectly booked inspections (outside of our district or condo properties within HOAs), and these will slowly open up times over the next 21 days.
Continue to check the booking page daily to find a time that works for you. We are unable to keep a cancellation list.
Only use the zone calendars if your are not part of an HOA and it is your first inspection. Re-inspections need to contact their inspector directly

If you already have a passing STR Defensible Space Inspection from NTF dated July 1, 2022 or later, you may use this inspection report for this 2024 calendar year. Please submit your passing inspection report to the Placer County STR Office. Inspections that still need to be completed, must do so by 11/30/2024. This inspection is only able to be conducted when snow is clear from the ground. NTF will collect the fee for and conduct the STR Defensible Space inspections for our district.
NTF Cost Recovery Fees will be collected for STR Defensible Space Inspections for all STR permits. These cost recovery fees were not collected by the Placer County STR program. NTF collects these fees directly via an invoice issued through Square.com.
COST RECOVERY SCHEDULE
