Probably easier and a better solution.Off top my head I don't think CA has temp regulations like other states.

It's my ONLY sense of value but creates so much more in infinite, priceless, ways.In 2010 I landed full time temp work in the Bakken oil fields in North Dakota but because I am a female I could not stay in the man camps, the pay was decent but no where and I mean no where to live, it is illegal to live in your car or camper in the winter (not that I wanted too) and my daughter stayed with family.  

They were basic tenants that never complained about anything, except that the hot water temp was too high.  

I have a few rentals in Tempe and Scottsdale. 

SFR = 1,700 / $450 ($0 mortgage) = 3.78%@John Leavelle  @Mar Now   - HELOC could still work just fine as temp solution until refi of multifamily = BRRRRR

We haven’t had any danger of frozen lines yet as we are not in freezing temps here.

But not in Greater Phx (which includes all the big cities like Phx, Scottsdale, Glendale, Peoria, Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Tempe, Cave Creek, Carefree, Sun City, Ahwatukee and more).Our average cost of entry is $200K for single family dwellings. 

Not really unusual issues this year, however, with temps below 20 degrees in January, it put pressure on all sorts of items - having a well oiled machine in place to handle large maintenance challenges, we simply dug in and handled the issues as they presented themselves. 

We are open to all of the Phoenix Area ( Tempe, Chandler, Mesa, Peoria). 

She would then not be responsible for any costs and insurance would cover temp housing.
