Renters home buisiness

[Jason Avila]

Can anyone think of or let me know if there are any liabilities I should be concerned with when a renter wants to run a daycare from our property? If any, what all can I do or require to mitigate any risk.

You will be responsible for any code violations that are discovered after the licensing or certification board comes to inspect the property, unless they are planning on running an illegal, unlicensed or uncertified day care. If that's the case, I'm not sure you want to be involved with that either.

If they were running a consulting business or something not requiring people to come to the property, I'd be totally OK with that (that's like working from home), but you will have children coming, the health department for food, and a lot of other people you may not want monitoring your property.
