1) Yiu REALLY need to know what CA will  allow you to do, I don’t know, but the state may say too bad landlord, you lose. 2) Assuming your attorney (Or you if you’re able to decode the laws that relate to your situation and are willing to go to court in front of a judge against a “sick” kid.) think you have the right to collect the rent I’d give them two options. 

In this case, get familiar with NYS landlord/tenant law or find someone who is. 

I know that by law you can only do 3 STR (less than 30 days) per year.  

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

Since my current strategy is BRRRR, I'm looking for a location where I can implement it successfully within my budget.I’d prefer to target the best neighborhoods or subdivisions I can afford, ideally with favorable eviction laws and other key factors.That said, I started wondering if there might be a better strategy to achieve my goals.

STR is another concern, many towns have laws against it but most towns do not enforce these laws, just make sure you are aware of them becuase they can be enforced. 

This will allow you to get the sheriff involved immediately.If you are already past the notice period then you will probably have to follow whatever state laws are in place for the notification period and possibly the eviction process.

Nice, but confusing.Our situation: FICA for kids turning 18 while working for us.So, the only thing we can conclude so far is that the age definitions in the tax law are wildly inconsistent and unclear.

My sister-in-law has found a house in their neighborhood that has been vacant for years, and lo and behold, the owner has passed away and the heirs are looking to sell.

Just be sure to clarify that she isn’t a leaseholder but is authorized to reside in the unit.If you’re concerned about liability or want more peace of mind, you could ask the primary applicant for additional security, such as a higher deposit, depending on what’s allowed under Colorado law.
