From realtor.com:  "A landlord can raise the rent only when your lease expires and with the appropriate amount of notice (if you're month-to-month, the landlord could conceivably increase your rent at the end of any month).

Will depend on several factors like the type of property, type of tenants, your risk tolerance, other assets you own, your estate planning, laws where the property is located, etc.Any lawsuits would be limited to the assets of the LLC and not your personal assets (assuming you run the LLC appropriately and the corporate veil is not pierced).

Generally, a corporate entity will be appropriate in this situation.

Also, is it appropriate to search a property via parcel number on the county site, and use the listed market assessed value?

You’re on the right track with this, although I think analyzing the cash flow of the Daly City property is an appropriate first step.

The home must be owner-occupied in order to use the accessory apartment and the home must be located in the appropriate zone.

@Michael Lewis Maple Heights is solid for single family investments, of which there are plenty.In single family homes, your tenant should be staying for 2 years plus, unless you / your PM aren't doing a great job with placement and management of the unit.2-3k solely for city items might be high, up to $1,500 seems more appropriate on a property in fair condition.With all that said, I still prefer my westside properties where city is rarely ever involved.
