RSO Owner move in Eviction in LA

[Jacob Lammott]

I am exploring options for purchasing a multi-unit property with a SFH (2b, 1ba, with a detached garage) and 2 ADU units (1- 2b/1ba and 1- 1b/1ba) in Los Angeles. The SFH and the 1b/1ba ADU are currently occupied by tenants under RSO and paying far below market rents. The other 2b/1ba ADU is newly remodeled with a much higher rent value than the other two units and is currently vacant.

Would we be able to owner occupy the SFH 2b/1ba unit and no-fault evict the current tenants? We would then rent the back unit for market rates and keep the tenant in the 1b/1ba unit. I know the rules for Owner move in state that: "The existence of a vacant comparable unit in the building which is also suitable for owner-occupancy is a factor demonstrating possible intent to
circumvent the Rent Stabilization Ordinance [RAC Regulation 613.04] ". So because the other unoccupied unit has the same number of bedrooms owner occupied might be a no-go, but the SFH (2b, 1ba, w/garage) unit has a larger square footage and garage access, so wondering if we might be able to get use that as a means to occupy that unit.
