generally, in areas when there is a reasonable expectation of privacy, cameras are not allowed. In public areas they are allowed. Inside of a house that you are renting to tenants would be a reasonable expectation of privacy. The lobby of a hotel or b n b would not have that expectation. There are LL's who have placed cameras on the exteriors of their property and tenants have often complained. LL's of larger buildings can generally do it, as there is no direct visual on specific persons coming and going to specific units. I've been a tenant and I wouldn't be real happy with a camera in the hall outside my front door that I didn't have complete and sole control of.

Great info. Thanks! Right now I have cameras outside the house pointing to drive way and they can catch anyone parking on drive way and and anyone walking toward the house door.
