AND, I would require that there be a smoke detector in the garage that is "connected" or "talks to" the smoke detectors in the house so that if a fire does break out in the garage, the tenants can get out out before the house burns down.I would also make sure that there is a sufficient fire wall between the garage and the rest of the house.
