I have a lot in East Rockaway, corner that I am helping the owner find a buyer...Trying to get more info on like zoning and how much you can build, Property shark has been useful in NYC but pretty useless in Long Island, can not even find basic info there, is there another website or resource I can use for more detailed property info?

I basically just told them when they moved in that any drama that may arise from them sharing the house is between them and has nothing to do with me (as long as the house/people aren't being physically harmed).If you do end up renting to veterans I think your best bet to ensure everyone gets along is to just make one lease for all 4 bedrooms.
