In NY, business licenses are more oriented toward retail or certain services like cutting hair or massage.

We have a strict No Pet Policy across all of our properties, AND also an Assistance Animal Policy that applies to all non-pets (Service Animals, Emotional Support Animals, Comfort Animals, Therapy Animals, or any animals by any other name).Fair Housing laws state that an "accommodation" can be requested at any time, before, during or after occupancy.

I hope to teach my kids what I've learn, but without the pain (or therapy bills!). 

Gloves, Tyvek suit, respirator, therapy.

A common mistake is to try to massage numbers to figure out how it MIGHT work so that you can rush into a deal just to say you did it.  

I prefer to ask my local lawyer who specializes in landlord/tenant law and has leases that they used for decades on thousands of cases and they have been changed and massaged for local rules.  

Also look at syndicator and make sure they are not using short term debt to massage the numbers early on to get an investment. 

Also, as of late, tenants are pushing the "therapy animal" legal get around for "pets." 

All this is very familiar to me as I do Travel Physical therapy with many years experience, plenty of reserves, excellent credit history and a weekly bring home of approx 1400 net or better.  

Thank you, everybody, for responding to my post, I sent you all a private massage
