Possibility to Rent to an Officer with K9!-Landlord/Legal Questio
As I am currently rehabbing one of my units, I have the possibility to rent to a Police Officer with K9. Of course, I am pursuing the typical credit and background checks as well. As I am aware that the dog is considered an officer of the law as well (or something like that), it is my understanding that they have a liability policy on the dog. I have to provide an area for a kennel for the dog as it cannot stay in the house. What I would like to know is what I should be requesting (policies, certifications etc...) as well as a possible clause in the lease? Thoughts on this scenario in general?
Thank you
Marcus

I would welcome any police officer into my buildings. The tenants would love the extra feeling of security that would come with the officer living there.
Police have the same problems everyone else has, but I would sooner deal with their issues. They bring extra value.
