Luckily for me the state of Florida has state level protection which bars municipalities from passing new or amending their existing laws.That said, I am seeing cities like City of Saint Pete crack down and are enforcing their laws for the first time in years.  

Obviously, they have no intention of following the law & I wouldn't count on them to adhere to your lease provisions, either.Don't get me wrong - I love dogs & my pit (who went through the big doggie door in the sky many years ago) was the best dog, ever!

Here are the new rental laws in California for 2024.

You can find SF properties that already have in law suites, garage units, etc, and now legally rent those, so it should increase the appraised value significantly.

CA is an expensive market and regarding tenant laws in my eyes more complicated/difficult as a rookie landlord.

My initial interest in out-of-state investing stems from the high cost of multifamily properties in New York and the state’s renter-friendly laws.

I’m going to disagree with @Chris Seveney and say whether an assignee could force a sale directly would be a state law issue and heavily dependent upon the contract terms. 

Quote from @John Malone: What's all the Hype with the new law?

All this is doing is delaying the process by a month and it'll become law.

@Joseph Binkowski - this seems overly complicated and possibly breaking a law... maybe you need a lawyer to vet this.If I were that accredited investor, I wouldn't touch any of it.
