"An occupancy permit is needed if you intend to run a business from your home in a residential area that is not zoned for business."

Will a Home Office Suffice?
" If you are debating whether to set up an office in your home or lease commercial space, think quite seriously about keeping the office in your home if you can. "

Issues to Consider When Setting up a Home Office
" Your home office should offer privacy and enough elbow room to hold the equipment and furniture you will require to effectively conduct your business. If you plan on holding client meetings in your home office, look for a room or rooms that are removed from your family surroundings. "

Zoning Laws and Home Offices
" Many localities do not permit any businesses to be operated in residential neighborhoods without a specific variance, which many zoning boards are very reluctant to grant except under extenuating circumstances. "

Featured Book

Streetwise Small Business Start-Up
When you start a small business you soon discover that things just don't happen in the real world the way they tell you in business textbooks: Invoices don't get paid by their due dates, ads don't consistently bring in customers, sales don't continually rise, and profits aren't always there. In this book, small business maverick Bob Adams shows you how things really get done, and acts as your mentor by providing instant access to streetwise advice on every small business topic.
