Full question:
I am renting/leasing a house with option to buy. This house will be used to run a group home for persons with disabilities. A regular lease form specifies that the house will be used as a personal residence with other clauses that will not apply to this situation. Do I fill out a regular lease option form and then write an addendum or do I write a lease specific for this situation?

Answer:
The answer will depend on the terms of the addendum and lease involved. An addendum is used to add terms, so this may be used as long as the terms added don't conflict with the provisions in the main lease. You will likely want to include waivers and releases from liability for injury and specific terms regarding early termination and notices, among other items. We suggest you consult a local attorney who can review all the facts and documents involved.
