California - Resistance to drought resistant landscaping

Am at the tail end of a southern Caliornia residential rehab facing the need to decide the type of landscaping necessary to sell it. 

The choices are:

- Seed Lawn

- Sod Lawn

- Drought resist lanscaping

My broker is encouraging me to use sod for a quick sale, but the irrigation district has limited watering to two days a week.

The neighborhood is about fifty years old without HOA restrictions. There is a mix of sod and drought resistant landscaping.

Will you be able to get sod or seed established with two days a week watering? It would never work here in a Colorado summer, it would fry in no time. We are used to drought resistant landscaping here, it actually can add to the value.
