Also, sounds like you plan to hold long term as it is so should be a non-factor. 2) Not as landlord friendly as other states - I agree here but our vacancy is generally so low that you can find the ideal tenants with proper diligence and screening.

Each room has its own thermostat and there is plenty of parking and land around the building.Possibilities include medical offices, storage facilities, convert the building into apartments, etc etc etc.The possibilities really are endless. 

It would be a better investment of your resources to get improved coverage on the "proper insurance" you have, including an umbrella policy that covers all of your properties.I have heard of some of my acquaintances set up land trusts within LLCs to help with anonymity, but they are cumbersome and require a fair amount of money/experience to set them up.

No referrals, but can tell you to interview multiple PMCs and do so BETTER than you would screen a tenant!

The best idea I have is for a vetting service renters can use to screen potential rentals/landlords.

The total monthly PITI, including seller finance, is $1,200 a month.

Critical items are budget, contracts, and schedule (included durations during contract).

When you include the COL in your figures, it amounts to a small fortune you are losing by staying in CA.YMMVGood luck!
