I would like to rent out my home but I am still registered there. What are the consequences if a potential tenant also registers there?

The question is very general. That is why I am choosing an approach that could be relevant: in some municipalities a rental permit is required. If the tenant is registered, the municipality will see that. If a permit is required and is missing, you can be contacted about it. In addition, being registered, together with paying rent, can prove the existence of a rental agreement. A rental agreement gives a tenant many rights - they are almost impossible to get rid of from a private home. Your home will therefore decrease in value considerably.
