It is definitely not landlord friendly or maybe to the extend of dangerous sometimes.

If this was in San Jose, I would build a roof structure to extend to the ADU within 10 feet, assuming that is possible. 

@Brandy SmithOne more, check out https://www.metrostudy.com/press/remodeling-magazine-releases-2019-cost-vs-value-report/These reports tend to guide improvements.

And WA has added a loophole for the eviction ban when they extended it: landlords who want to sell or move into the property may evict.

If they do not want to extend, put that to the tenant in writing with the required amount of time per your state.  

So, 2 thoughts: (1) until you actually ID the property, I'm not sure a QI would release the money, and once you do ID, if you lose the property, you could be in a bind, and then (2) if the QI released the funds to get a bank check in your name, as opposed to the typical 1031 process where the QI moves the money and you never touch it, I would think that could cause a problem.

I am on here to extend what I have to offer to others around the world. instead of just the people of California and my community. 

But clearly my contract with Management Company does not state anything about collecting 10% of the security deposit being collected when the security deposit has been released to me to begin repairs etc.

In my neighborhood the condos are selling like hotcakes and they are doing good job of slowly releasing them to keep prices high. 

It is naive to think that just because you have made all of your payments that your current lender will simply continue to re-extend your note, regardless of what your current loan officer tells you.
