Liability in rental garage
I own a house with a large garage that is suited well for automotive enthusiasts like myself which next month will be a rental. I set up a car lift in the garage and I had planned on leaving it for future tenants as I can charge a higher rent and it is also good incentive for the tenants to stay. (I already have many interested tenants because of the layout and the garage/shop).
My wife brought up a good point as we’re getting ready to place a tenant and that is: Either I need to find some sort of legal document that will release me of any liability in case they hurt or kill themselves with a car falling off the lift, or I just need not leave it and take it to my next house.
Thoughts?
Thanks
