We have a one car garage in Ditmas Park that I was considering converting into a studio apartment for income. The garage has its own C of O. What would I need to do to make it a legal live space? Maybe an office conversion would be a better idea…

  1. I’m pretty sure you can’t make this a legal dwelling. You can get a one-time exemption for an “office” or “studio,” but that’s about it. You could always do the work, get it signed off on and add a kitchen later, but it would never be a legal rental.
