I'm a CFI out of Santa Monica and an adjunct professor (as of today) at Orange Coast Community College in their aviation department. 

Now they have private meetings with Borough council and codes department trying to convince them they need to target landlords and now restrict certain types of people renting in the town. 

You can also look in the county's records department for the grantor/grantee index. 

I think its got to first hit the loan mitigation department.  

the fire department or else where?. 

Do you work for Cal Fire or the local fire department?  

I worked at a bank for 3 years underwriting commercial real estate loans and have spent the past year in the real estate tax department of a major retailer.  

After months of negotiating with banks, attorneys, water departments, junior lienholders etc. it's a low return for time invested.Everyone in life wants to grow their business to bigger and better things as an investor or a broker/agent.Just so everyone is clear a REALTOR has nothing to do with state licensing ( maybe it does in some states that I am not aware of but I have not seen it ).

I left the building and safety department and they told me a lot.

The fire department has blessed the extra rooms as bedrooms, so what were "2 bedroom units with 2 bonus rooms"  became "4 bedroom units".
