After scouring the City of Pismo Beach's painfully vague website, I've noted a few pieces of information which you may find to be helpful.

See my self Service youtube on our website on setting up self service.Managing- we use Webselfstorage. 

Among all the background websites/portals available.

I just checked your website and it looks like your job is in OC.

Depending what state you're in there may be an app/website to go to and review.

I have another one under remodeling that I plan to do as a short term rental (no experience yet, but this house is next door to my home).I have a dedicated website that I maintain myself where I publish the details, applications etc, also list it on zillow and do the screening through mysmartmove.

Either my calculations are wrong, or the numbers on Redfin are wrong ( I am very suspicious of the home insurance that they show on the website), or I am in the wrong market. 

I would jump on her website, and listen to her podcasts/webinars.

You can set up an LLC by going to the Secretary of State's website in the state where the property is located.  

Resources like this website and your contributions are incredibly valuable to guys like me!
