There are usually no laws preventing this (you'd have to check local ordinances), but there are PLENTY of homeowners associations that do not allow renters. Those can be found in your homeowners association bylaws.
Most cities/counties have a license you have to get (usually around $50) in order to rent out any property, so make sure you check with your local court house. |

There are, they are part of the zoning laws. You have to have zoning for multiple families. THere are also local laws dealing with how many unrelated people can live in one unit, as well as how many related people (differant limits).
Your mortgage company will have serious issues with this if you are not living in the property as well. |

There can be, if your house is in an area zoned for single family residential. |

I highly doubt it. It is a pretty common practice. Maybe some homeowner's associations have rules that prevent it though. |

Well I suppose you have to consider that laws certainly change from state to state. I am familiar with the state of Kansas laws. The Kansas Residential Landlord Tenant Act (KRLTA) might provide you with some information or at least point you in the right direction. There is a website where you can check that out.

no as long you follow the rules and regulations estblished by your city, be really carefull especially the discrimination regualtions and rent control if you have any.
make sure you have a writting agreement to avoid problems in the future |
