Not only is this legal, there are entities which support and help you find good, skilled, day laborers.The organization I worked for helped create the contract--which basically stated that you would indeed pay the worker and that you would not expose them to potentially harmful situations--and helped by keeping track of their income (so that they could file taxes EOY).Many people in New York took this route.

@Marian Smith That said, no harm done.

I use quotes cause he's not physically harming them, but you know what I mean.In your example, if that lady doesn't get repairs done, she's only hurting herself.

It kinda goes along the lines of telling the trouble maker to make sure that nothing harms the client or his property, that if so much as a beer can is thrown in his yard, he will be responsible and they will be back to visit.

No harm in developing the list 30 days in advance.

He said an unhappy seller that finds out a property was immediately resold for profit could come back to harm the agency.

Having a corporation does not shield you from actions that you PERSONALLY do or do not do that harms another.

I'm not a lawyer, so have no idea, but I was taught that if you gave permission, then you could revoke it at a later date and be within your legal rights to do so without harming yourself.

Keep in mind what's good for the goose is good for the gander and one sided obligations, as you are suggesting, won't hold water.Having such an agreement may serve as eye wash to another party and if thought to be valid, they may not seek any action against you, but if they are ever advised and an issue surfaces than such an agreement could be doing more harm than it was worth.IMO, Good luck

I don't think any magistrate or court will make a landlord keep a relationship that presents harm to that person.
