I am thinking about renting a temporary/sublet and using it to do incall massage appointments. I have never done incall before other than at a hotel and even then it makes both me and the client uncomfortable because it doesn't feel as private. However, I have never rented alone before I have always lived with room mates/friends or family members. I'm looking at a few places and some of them offer a 24 hour security desk. My experience with that in L.A. (most apartments) is that they sometimes ask visitors for ID and ask who they are going to see. This is good for safety however I don't want anyone to be suspicious of me either and they would have to ask for my real name I assume. With incall I feel like it would be slightly more comfortable because it's my own environment however I feel like it's an increased risk for someone to do something dangerous and flee AND they will now know where I live. So to all the incall providers, how do you ensure your saftey without giving nosey neighbors or others around any suspision? And how do you handle the fact that clients now know where you live and can possibly just show up? As far as my search goes, do you think it is better to rent a location that doesn't have a 24 hour security desk (that asks visitors who they are going to see) and be able to be more discreet? Or is it better to rent somewhere with it to ensure safety, yet risk possible nosiness?  Also being that I am "self employed" do you think apartments whould still rent to me? Thanks ladies (and hobbyists)

Very few ladies provide from their home.  It opens a whole new level of risk.  Neighbors are not stupid & will see the traffic.  I have one Fav who is a LMT & offers this service from her appt...  but is limited.  Her Landlord knows of her LMT business...  most do not know she offers limited extras.  You must call & she must let you in.
Another Fav has a legit home business which her neighbors think is the reason for her limited traffic.  She screens like crazy...  but I worry about her security.
I really can not recommend any sort of providing from a home location & certainly not on a first meeting.  
Perhaps some TER ladies can give you some tips...  that shuld not be posted on a public forum.

If you get incall never ever disclose it to another provider. Do not share the incall with another provider.

Most apartment complexes will want to call your employer to see if you are employed. They don't accept cash for rental payment mainly to keep people out doing illegal activity.

Be prepared to have your incall appointments interrupted by apartment complex maintenance. I was at a incall and had to hid in the providers room when maintenance came into the apartment. She failed to read the notice for inspections.

You need to get some intel about the apartment and who the neighboors are. If you are concerned about security get a place where you can buzz the client in, but not have to register at the front desk.

Always be careful because a client knocking at the wrong door will get you notice by the neighboors.

Restrict your traffic to the incall, don't do incall late a night. Be careful about incall times when kids get off/go to from school (high schools sometime let out at 2:00 pm).

You need to be careful how you let people in your apartment. If you are one of those garden style apartment complex be careful in that LE can watch if you let the client in a side door or a door that is alternative entry place.

things can go wrong if the client becomes a pyscho. Not a good idea to play where you sleep.  

There are a lot of ladies who do have a separate apt./condo for incall business.

I would look into renting an office space that had pre-existing clients, say.... a secluded office space in a small office building or a strip.

Make sure it's invitation only. Use a video camera system, only open the door for confirmed appointments. Etc...

Good luck, stay safe.

BTW - it's faily simple to create a fictitious name statement to register the lease under a business name rather than your own.

All legal.

I have done the business space before too.  It does work and in addition it is a good cover story as to what you do when family and friends ask, and you can write the space off as a business expense!

The only down side is usually no shower, but if you are an LMT, you could probably find a place with a shower and that would seem normal as well.  

Google "starting a business" in your home state, you can most likely register the fictious name and purchase all the business licenses online.  

Good luck....

I just remembered a LMT (offers HE only) I saw a few months back.  She works from a strip mall business space.  It's not a perfect set up but it is what it is.  Her unit is on a small hallway to the rear.  Several other units on the hall but not a lot of traffic.  She had to come to the door to let me in though I think at other times the corridor might be unlocked.  There is shared rest rooms on the corridor.  There was a small space with a sink...  possibly intended as a kitchenette.  
As I was leaving she pointed out there is a rear door to the hallway...  right next to her unit.  I bet regulars do not hastle with street parking but use the rear lot.  
She dressed in medical type clothing & everything appeared professional.  The work space was set up as a one room spa with a massage table some lighting, music, a couple of chairs.  She must go through a ton of linens as she stripped the sheets off the table as I was dressing.  Also had plenty of fresh towels.
Be sure any business space conforms to zoning, safety, exit requirements.  There was a provider here who was ticketed for door lock violations.
