Alan rented a house in a suburban neighborhood and recently decided he wants to turn the house into a tech-support business, with about five employees who work on-site. Alan needs to be careful to check zoning regulations and his lease agreement, otherwise he might violate:

Question

a. computer laws

b. property laws

c. laws against discrimination

d. laws about IT compliance

Answer 1

The correct answer is b. property laws.

Zoning regulations typically fall under property laws and dictate how a property can be used, including whether a commercial business can operate in a residential area. Additionally, Alan should ensure that his lease agreement allows for such a business operation.
