@Robert Taylor  The fire happened Wed @ 4:30 amI had a vm from the inspector on Thursday and the property mgnt also called Thursday morning saying one of their employees saw it on the news.

I also plan to move in the next year, and there are other life events that may effect my time and money in the future (wedding, children, selling my condo and/or buying a SFR for me and my growing family etc. etc.) 

Going a little more that direction and over the border the NH Mastermind meeting in Nashua (Next Wed) is very good.  

Nonetheless, our NOO/rentals are not in CA - and we don't have these water rationing issues there.Our primary residence (and I would probably also do this if and when we purchased investment properties here) is primarily grass with some native trees, shrubs and plants (near the property).To allow us to have grass without heavy fines for water we use 1) apply summer guard and 2) winterize our laws. 3) we are mandated to water only Wed and Sat (early am or late evening). 

I know a lot of people who used student loans to pay for things other than school, (weddings, etc), but it is specifically prohibited.
