Not sure what the laws are in CA, but if you were supposed to give 60 day notice you are already too late.

Let them pull this crap in CA now.

I still have that house and it rents for a grand these days. my first house was late 70s that I bought  in those days it was 80 10 and 10  you need 10% cash and normally a private HML would give you the 10% second and bank was the first.. interest on the first was 9% second was 15%.. this was before the Carter interest rate run up.. paid 80k for it in Milpitas CA.. and it was brand new bought it from Shapel . 

In CA currently only MF properties are rent controlled.

This is how I would recommend doing it:First a caveat I am in Tampa, FL and do not know any rules or laws for CA or dealing with the permits for Joshua Tree.1.

We currently live in CA, but are moving to Illinois in the coming months - so this will be our state of residence soon.

A 1%- and 2%- rule property is hugely better in California compared to Costa Rica because you can leverage in California and you can't in Costa Rica (notwithstanding the fact the risk is higher in Costa Rica too so you'd actually expect a higher return there).

I sold my company to a national PMC named PURE,  they have a large footprint in California and are always looking for people at most levels. 

diversification and cash flowSan Jose, CA has been very appreciation heavy... and i'm not opposed to keeping some property here, though the multi-family / commercial real estate has very low cap rates, and low growth from what i'm seeing.

Does anyone know of a group or angel investors who would invest up to 5M to fund a luxury 6 room micro resort in central coast wine country in California?
