Am I in trouble???
Just received a letter from township saying that they received a complaint regarding possible "stacking" i(housing more people than allowed) in my house and want to come to inspect.
The situation is: this is a single family house and has four bedrooms. I live in the master and three person stay in the rest. Is that against the law? what should I do the get ready for the inspection?
Any advice is appriciated!

If you have 4 bedrooms and a total of 4 people living in the house, I wouldn't be wondered, but I'd be pretty pissed at whomever called on me.

Don't you need separate COs for all the people who are renting from you?

Yes it is against the law if your home is single family zoned, unless these are family members.

Certificate of occupancy... but like the poster after me said, if you're zoned to be a single family, you could be in trouble.
Tell them they are your cousins.
