She is an RN and looking to take a travel nursing position for the Summer months which would leave our home vacant. 

Traveling nurses, visiting professors, construction workers (windfarm, energy, tech).   

I am looking at a property with a mother in law suite in the basement with its own separate entrance, kitchen, basically everything to make this a stand alone unit.

Many per Diem nurses here are out of state and fly in to work a few days in a row and stay at short-term/friends housing.

They both need to be called a  mother in law apartment.It is a term that covers so many properties in  Real Estate .Your broker can wall you through this.Who ever has control of the the A/C Furnace controls need to paythe bill and the area where the other tenant is there will need to have an understanding that they will be paying for their share ofthat bill.What a can of worms that started!!

I also have a larger project of renovating a mother in law suite, but I'm using these smaller tiered projects to gauge the success/relationship I develop with the contractor. 

Firstly…..Holy mother of dragons I cannot believe I did a deal.Secondly, so…much…analysis paralysis FOR NOTHING!!!!

Laws could vary greatly where you are.It is generally common practice that as long as the tree is not knowingly in danger of falling over or large branches breaking off, then it is just mother nature taking its course and the owner of the property where the branch lands is responsible for its cleanup. 

Purchase price: $139,000 Single family with mother-in-law suite, former 2-apartment set-up. 4 bedrooms, 2 kitchens, 2 bath.Structure: 2-story wood frame, full front porch, small back porch, cellar room, full-size unfinished attic. 4 fireplaces, slate roof.

I recently graduated with a bachelors of science in nursing and started my career in the St.
