There’s an obvious housing shortage here in SoCal.

additional challenges are the inventory shortage and good contractors being extremely busy. 

Scenario 1 they don’t or refuse to move- eviction costs and/or lost rent Scenario 2 they move out and Cap ex and turnover costs, lost rent, advertising for new tenants in a somewhat of a qualified tenant shortage, headaches can be avoided by simply having a conversation with the tenant to see where their head is at, and that they understand what your expectations are.

.- long term: there is a shortage of properties in almost all cities and in some cases and that has contributed to an increase of rents and prices in double digits in some cases. i.e Mafra 10% rent increases last year and Setubal +15% price increase.

Worse news: the shortage of tax professionals specializing in real estate is getting worse every year.

Addressing Housing Demand -California’s housing shortage is well-documented, and SB 9 directly targets the problem by promoting small-scale, incremental density increases.

There is no shortage of realtors excited to give you their take on the market there.
