[quote=Anonymous]Can you list any jurisdictions that define tenancy dependent on employment or tenancy at-will as equal to the definition of tenant and landlord status? I doubt it because if you dig into the local laws the definition of a tenant is specifically defined. If the live-in nanny is paying rent, her tenancy is in exchange for rent and renters protection laws apply to her as collection for past due rent laws apply for the landlord. If the live in nanny is not paying rent, she is living there as a condition of employment (which makes the economic value of her room/board a non taxable benefit to her). If employment ends, there no longer is a requirement for her to stay. My cousin was a live in nanny in Washington state and BIL is an attorney. Landlord/tenant laws are not the same for live-ins where the position is for the convenience of the job/employer which is how most nannies and employers set it up. [/quote]
