Highly recommend getting in touch with a good landlord/tenant lawyer that specializes specifically in CA. 

I recommend that you learn the tax code and take ownership over your strategy.Not having some foundational knowledge and an opinion on how to approach taxes as a business owner is a huge mistake.In my experience, every single business owner who says "I just let my CPA worry about it and I focus on my business" is doing a suboptimal job at tax planning.They are likely missing out on 10s or hundreds of thousands in saved dollars every year.Stop making excuses and get to work.Just a few months of part-time learning about taxes will pay you for the rest of your career.

You can also look on the city's website under their construction code.

I'm in the messy middle as a residential agent who works mostly with investors and specializes in the small MF space.  

@Isadore Nelson I'm currently seeing 154 available rentals on Zillow in the 19119 zip-code, ugh... is exactly the wrong way to analyze a neighborhood, lets use the 19119 zip code for this exercise: Did you know the 19119 zip code is ~ 3.5 Square miles? 

They don't appear to be anything special.

We use a 3rd party company that specializes in only property management trust accounting (nothing else), and they reconcile the bank account every single day.

After 8 years as a director in the kitchen and bath retail space, I'm bringing my positive energy and relationship building to a wholesaling firm covering Los Angeles and San Diego counties (we specialize in single family homes priced between $400-$1.7M).

However, if the amount is substantial, you might want to compare Wise with a few other specialized currency transfer services, like OFX or Revolut, to ensure you’re getting the best deal on rates and fees.

We use accounting software that codes the income and expenses to the property (called a class) so we can run P&L;s on each property with ease.Your accountant and bookkeeper will also thank you later for keeping it simple and avoid significant accounting costs.
