File an intent to rent form
If you rent or lease a property in Piedmont, you need to file an intent to rent form. Each year you need to pay an annual rental tax.
Need to know
- This is a one-time filing – you only need to do this once per property
- If your tenant registers their children in Piedmont schools, a copy of this approved letter may be required
Before you start
You will need the names of everyone who will be living in the rental, including any children. You’ll also need to note the lease start and end dates. If you have a commercial property, you do not need to list anyone’s names.
Steps
1. Fill out the intent to rent form

By February 15 of the next calendar year, you need to pay your annual rental tax.
