I once rented a slot in a warehouse but it was probably highly illegal considering lack of fire suppression, flammables storage, chemical cabinets and container labeling, lack of eyewash, etc etc.
Inspection? Insurance? hah!
Someone set up a commercial business and installed lifts probably incorrectly despite drilling into floor damage. It was like a big co-op but the managers couldn't keep hold of the tenants and visitors. Scummy friends of friends were walking in with their dates to impress the chicks and word got around. One guy left a foot long deuce in the bowl to impress everyone. Another borrowed my drill and polished his car about 10 hours per day. People weren't paying, big theft occurred(probably insurance scam), keys and hours and security cameras and the whole operation was not regulated.
It got too big too fast.

People are going to get nervous when you say "work on the car".
Like a MotorScheister engine rebuild that could mean anything.
Your accident in their garage could put them out of their home.
If your stuff all gets ripped off you want it on the books as well.

You might want to advertise pro-actively in C.L. or newspapers. Word gets around.
