The tenant may recover the actual and reasonable cost of that other housing which is in excess of the amount of rent which is abated.Elsewhere in Clark County, NV codes:"Life-safetysystems" means, without limitation, electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, emergency lighting, audio and visual signals, fire sprinklers, smoke detectors, fire walls, and means of egress required by law for the protection of human life and safety.So, the fact of the matter is, most people do live without A/C, however your municipality, and building codes will determine whether or not you are required to provide such services, and what remediation the tenant has and what duties the landlord is liable for.

This destroys any fire walls that the building is designed to keep in place.  

Needs to sprinkled for a leasing of the entire basement or a firewall to reduce open footage to 5,000 or less.The basement is mostly carpeted with several rooms that were rented in the past.

Perhaps we (BP, the community) need a better firewall between the visible personalities - podcast hosts, webinar leaders, etc - and those with something to sell.

My biggest surprise on this last project was that they allowed standard 1/2" sheetrock for fire wall.

You could have a server or hardware firewall that does a better job of blocking torrents and providing security, but then you have to buy and maintain that.

Ceiling Sprinklers, Offices attached/detached from storage, fire walls or gap between buildings, Square footage per building before sprinklers are required.

Building code may be an issue, if your area requires a fire wall between living units, that means a fire resistant wall (block) that raises above the top plate about 18 inches I believe under roof, that would be hard to put into an existing building from the foundation up.By the time you do a conversion I'd say your tenant would be paying the cost of the add ons, you'll be paying for the house.

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.

Bottom line, legal entities come in when your net worth becomes significant enough to create firewalls between individual pieces.Avoid large banks and google local banks and credit unions; with a decent credit score you will not have a problem to get a loan in your name on a cashflowing property.
