Caleb, Looks like there is a ton of helpful information in the above thread.

My lease has a sublet fee (2 weeks is guest by lease more than 2 weeks in a year is sublet) that is costly enough ($100/night per person which is about what a cheaper hotel is here) that makes sure tenants do not have others move-in without informing us.

Expand my search to some metros even if it doesn't have a direct flight from SFO.This is also going to be something I will act on in 6 - 12 months as I gather more information and visit some of the places I narrow my search down to
