Hi Jerry,SF has some of the strongest rent control laws in the country, limiting how much you can increase rent and they also have a strict guideline for eviction. 

But maybe because I have PriceLabs control the pricing.

You get the probate protection, privacy, control, plus the tax benefits of step up I mention above. 

My W2 is affording me some extra time and I want to spend that time building my REI experience.I am a commercial lighting and interior designer and lighting controls expert. 

Pests, rodents, severe weather, destructive tenants are also unknown and can only be estimated. 

Roof and attic insulation are key factors in controlling the heat load.Commercial HVAC sizing is based on that plus the addition of heat from air supplied from the outside to replace "stale" air indoors - local ordinances often require specified amounts of air replacement - in an occupied space and also from the number and activity of individuals expected to occupy that space.

Rent control has made increases difficult, long term tenants below market rent

I am concerned with rent control as well....The lease is for one yearI know from basement tenant that they signed lease with the sister (but the lease has previous owner's name)if it is fraud - it will be her word against minebasement tenant are probably here illegally and I doubt they would testify

Round up seems to be the consensus solution for weed control.

This includes gaining access and loading the necessary applications to control the garage door and other capabilities.The MTRs I've seen on websites only have simple photos, without a specific location.
