My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: South Carolina. The house is located in Irmo of Richland county and is 5000+ sq feet, 5 bedrooms 4 bath. I want to rent out the 4 bedrooms but a neighbor got wind of it and freaked out saying they were going to contact the county about occupancy laws. It hadn’t occurred to me before that I wouldn’t be allowed to rent out rooms in a house I own. The neighbor mentioned a 3 non related person rule that she was going to check on with the county. I looked it up but I can’t find if it applies to my county/ neighborhood. So if this law actually applies, my husband and I count as related and are allowed to have 2 roommates?
