A lot of states have laws against office and living spaces being in the same building, if I recall. Maybe someone else has more expertise and correct me.

This would obviously make it difficult for someone to rent out their living room to $Startup, for example.

I guess the moral is that if you make enough money fast enough, you can hire lawyers to keep you out of jail.
