    Question Help Me Please!!

    What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida

    I was wondering if in any way would it be illegal if I leased out a office space and sold some of my belongings out of it? If so could you advice me as to what type of prmits or other proceders I wold have to go through to legalize it.

    The legal term for that is "store".

    You will need a business license.
    We have enough youth. We need a fountain of smart.

    If it is an office lease, selling goods may violate the terms of your lease even if you have a business license. Most leases describe the permitted uses for the space. Most office buildings do not want the traffic that a store brings.

    Breaching your lease is not "illegal" but is probably grounds for the landlord terminating your lease and collecting damages as well.

    **A: what type of belongings are you talking about? Your baseball card collection or your tractor and trailer collection?
