Hi there, I was in two minds about posting here or in the property management section but I came to the conclusion that it was more a legal issue than anything else. I have a unit with 2 garages side by side. The unit will be rented to one tenant with the inclusion of one garage. The second garage will be advertsied and leased as storage space. I rang renting services at the Dept of Fair Trading and they told me that if you rent a garage as storage then it would not be covered under a residential lease, that I would have to look at a commercial agreement of some sort. The person said this on the basis that no "people" would actually be living in the garage. My instinct tells me he took a wild guess to fob me off but maybe I'm wrong. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Jester
