I'm not a FDC person but I have a friend who is (in WA) who has a set up in a rented house. She had to have permission (I think written) from the landlord to run a business like this from the house. He was more then happy though for her to pay for all the safety upgrades to the house (Like safety film on all lower windows). She loves doing it though.

ETA: Oh I thought you were in melbourne, I will be looking for places for my two next year in all likelihood! Good Luck
