[quote=Anonymous]You don't say where you are but in DC you need two egress/ingress points, the main electric box needs to be mutually accessible, you need 7 foot ceilings in the living space and 6 ft 8 in ceilings in the kitchen and bathroom and you need hard wired smoke detectors. There are a bunch of other requirements but those are the trickiest. There used to be a DCRA blog about this with the requirements but I can't find it but this lists them (I think): http://districtre.com/tools-2-use/dc-rental-basement-guidelines/ You are supposed to get an inspection from DCRA. No zoning relief is required anymore.[/quote]
