PJ, this reminds me of one other thing to consider.  Years ago, a barn 
that was housing over 30 classic cars caught fire.  They all burned to the 
ground.  Cause of the fire was one owner's carelessness.  As a result, all 
the vehicles (some VERY HIGH END) were lost and most insurance policies 
didn't pay because they weren't stored 'properly.'

That means, you have one renter's car catch fire, and everything could be 
lost, his unit, the other renters, AND YOUR STUFF.  (and I hope the garage 
isn't attached to the house.)

FWIW
