With the direction and expertise of a property manager, you'll be empowered to make well-informed choices and flourish in the constantly evolving real estate realm.b.

It depends on the city so always best to check directly with them. 

I’m just looking for advice/direction.

Neighbourhood zoning laws might differ, so it's critical to understand the requirements that apply to your particular property.2.

Right out the gate, you could theoretically apply your commissions towards the down payment or towards rehabbing a property to rent it out for top dollar. #2 If you find that STR's are your passion, I recommend really studying up on CA laws and regulations on these.

Unfortunately this is a rule that is not directly referenced in section 1031 of the tax code but takes its precedence from the "intent to hold for business use" rule. 

I would say that things are continuing to trend in the right direction, but it's a slow process for anything down there.  

Given that, I have a few properties that I'm selling (direct to other investors, no agents). 

You can typically hold the tenant responsible until a replacement tenant is found not the end of the lease unless of course you have a termination clause which would apply.   

Can somebody point me in the right direction?
