I understand there is a cost to have it burned down. the home would have to be prepped to to meet the requirements for permitting.

Fortunately for our 100+ house community, the fire department was already on site battling the brush fire and about a dozen fire fighters frantically extinguished the 4 or 5 roofs burning.This is insignificant compared to what has happened in LA, Palisades, Malibu and Altadena however having lived through Hurricane Andrew and many other major storms even this experience was drastically more terrifying and chaotic. 

Probably this. california department of Real estate has already nailed two agents for raising rents above price gouging thresholds.. 10k fine plus who knows what kind of license discipline.

The meeting was mostly passive.

Their customer service department is very responsive.When selling a service as taking care of everything and handling the complete process, this includes all forms, liabilities and considerations for that particular need.

Similar to the comments above on using FurnishedFinder, also check Airbnb and sort for 30+ day rental options. in addition, I'd recommend talking to the local university and hospitals nearby by calling to their various departments.

So when you need to go check on things, rent units, meet contractors, etc, you're jumping in the car for 6 hours, spending 1hr there, and I'm thinking after a full days's work.

Go in person to the planning department and talk to them.
