- FYI: it's only illegal to try to rent it out, the property owner can usually legally live in a nonconforming basement unit.If you do all this you may still negatively cashflow each month, so make sure your income can cover and/or your cash reserves.If you do this successfully, you will learn more in 1-2 years than you would reading here on BP for 5+ years:)Good luck:)

Hello- I have a. situation that I need some clarification and understanding.Situation: My wife is the Conservator and legal guardian of her mother who is in memory care.

I have legal background, billing, office and executive assistant type experience, and now many years of marketing experience as well.

The fact that you think the tenant is a pain has nothing to do with how you maintain the property, you could be creating legal and maintenance problems for yourself by not taking action. 

Purchase contract should show the entire legal as platted.

Quote from @Brandon Larson: Yea, @Nathan Gesner is that legal to enroll someone in an insurance policy and then charge them for it?

Quote from @Bruce Woodruff: Quote from @Stetson Oates: I’m not an attorney so this is not legal advice!!!!

Quote from @Jeremy Jareckyj: Anything rented for longer than 30 days is legally considered a long-term rental.

Has anyone had any luck obtaining legal counsel and fighting this?  

Do not rely on it for legal advice.
