no but houses/apartments break down on a regular basis and you need to pay a plumber to fix the sewer or patch up the roof or etc.

not doing it in a building could potentially make you liable to the neighbors-- say, if theres an electrical fire or a flood or something.

insurance won't pay if you're found negligent.

i dont know what kind of setup you've got (if there are condo fees or what not) but check & doublecheck.
