California - Landlord Reserves Right to Terminate 3 year Lease Anytime?

Is it legally possible for a: 

1.) Landlord to reserve the right to terminate a 3 year lease with 60 day notice anytime. The main reason I would like this clause is to have freedom to sell and show the property as I please, and if I do not feel the tenant is a good fit.

2.) Force mediation. That is, if there are any issues during their tenancy, not result to litigation or a court case. I would like to keep things as inexpensive as possible if something were to happen (knock on wood)

What would be the point of a three year lease with a unilateral termination clause for the landlord?  If you're unwilling to commit to a tenant, just do month to month.  I can't imagine you'll get many takers on such a one-sided lease.
