It's heavily dependent on what the tax code allows and who is interpreting the tax code.

I think "California Business and Professions code 7029.6" is the name of the law that requires them to display this?

Here is my current set up:1) ShowMojo for managing the self showing listings (It has some self showing anti-fraud services, syncs with smart lockbox to issues codes, etc etc)2) CodeBox Jr smart lockbox where I have the keys3) ReoLink Go Plus Cellular Camera with a $5 per month T mobile data only sim card.

For individual properties, we've recently started using a QR code system for wi-fi and email capture to save on costs.

Normally, unless there are specific building code restrictions, the amount of units allowed on a lot is determined by the Floor Area Ratio. 

The amount of alter-egos this fella has is absurd.

We also are very verse on the Property Code Laws of what legally we must do and what is just good business.So @Ian McClure to answer your question, it would depend on how the new tenant was on boarded and what kind of business the owner runs concerning his property

You have to know the landlord tenant code regarding proper notices etc.  

Also, have you made any significant alterations to the property or if it were put on the market today, would it be indistinguishable from a standard 4-bedoom house (are there any extra walls for the SRO, constructed locks/barriers etc.)If its a standard SFR and the leases are very short term - there is a path that you could refinance this with a DSCR as basically a Short Term Rental and then potentially change strategic course back to SRO if needed at a later date
