4 beds and 2.5 baths makes me think renting by the room, like medium term rentals.

Around the world, at least 30,000 websites are hacked every day, with small and medium-sized enterprises being the target of more than half of these crimes.

From what I've seen, owners with medium to small portfolios often seem to be more open to negotiations.

Why not a happy medium of 5%? 

Hello, managing these types of small to medium size projects or really any repair is incredibly difficult when trying to self manage remotely.

Jonathan is right....now it is going to be tough....but once the memoratoriam is lifted, I expect the courts to be flooded with eviction cases....personally, I prefer 6 month leases as a happy medium...as opposed to month to month...which may scare off potential future renters.

It would depend on more than just the lot area - you'd also need to meet the frontage requirements, width requirements, and depth requirements.

Most medium to large shops offer benefits too.

Been a Bay Area local for all my life and really want to dive into the STR market in the medium-medium/long future somewhere in the Sierra Nevadas (preferably Tahoe or anything off of Highway 4 - Arnold or Highway 108 - Pinecrest).

Small Multifamily properties (2&3 units) will do great in the areas mentioned as long as they're well maintained (ie: manicured, clean interior, updated medium grade finishes)
