Having a seperate commercial space is not a bad idea. Imagine if there's a fire in the shop. Do you want that fire hitting your house at the same time? Imagine the fire starts in your house. You get out, your house goes down, but the shop is still good to go. At least you still have a livelyhood to rebuild your house with.
That only applies to work where you are doing things that can cause fires. I used to work for a guy who started his own Real Estate firm and house flipping business. He was required to have an office that was not his house. So he had to buy commercial property that he never used. I was his only employee and did all the work in his basement.
He did. We just didn’t use it. We could do everything from his house where he already had internet and everything set up. Plus he could help keep an eye on the kids if his wife needed to run errands.
Yes, it is handy, especially out here. No hydrants and all you can do is watch it burn before they get here. My property is wooded, the house is down in a ravine, the shop is up by the road.

Why didn't he just rent a cheap office space?
