I'm currently renting a bedroom out in the home that I own, and one of my tenants recently asked me if he could keep his medical marijuana at the house.  He says he has a Florida medical marijuana card, and he knows I will cancel his monthly lease if he smokes in the house.

My question is this: if police were ever called to my home and found the marijuana on my premises, would I be considered liable under constructive possession?  Would keeping a copy of his medical marijuana card protect me from this provided it did not expire?

Thanks everyone!

That's what I was afraid of.  I've asked him for clarification and to send me his license number, so we'll see what happens.  Thank you Mr. Ramirez!!

Hello all!  I've been reading several of the BiggerPockets books and listening to the podcasts for some time now, finally signed up for the forums with a contractor related question...

I've been doing a lot of rehab work on my home with the idea of eventually moving out and using it as a rental.  After discovering that my old shower walls were built with drywall instead of a more appropriate hardie board or cement board (that was a fun discovery), I started getting estimates from contractors for a complete tear out and replacement.  

When I asked my preferred contractor to show me his license, he shared with me a document (that I've verified on the Florida Division of Corporations webpage) proving that he's an LLC... however, I can't find his name or his business name on the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation website. What good is the LLC here? I know it protects the contractor, but does the LLC mean he's got a license to work as a contractor I'm not finding or that he simply is protecting himself from potential damages? Also, the LLC was created just under a month ago which raises another red flag to me...

Thanks everyone!
