However, there are (were) a number of new regulations and restrictions on short term rentals which dissuaded us from investing in the market. 

I did when I purchased my properties in Las Vegas at auctions between 2008 and 2020 and I made several million dollars.The next most-critical downside to owning long-distance properties is most property management companies probably do a great job, but due to the many restrictions and controls landlords limit them to and because property management companies don't have the latitude to always make instant decisions on-the-fly like a hand-on owner can then the property owner incurs more losses.

I don't really have any restrictions on the land contract. 

One of the things pointed out was: Restrictive covenant regarding the wetland mitigation area providing Department of the Army the ability to come onto the property for development purposes and restoring the mitigation area.

I’m currently reading the Environmental Control Committee Manual, other regulations, and by-laws and restrictions.

This is exactly why I'm trying to connect with the right people who know the different zoning laws/restrictions / sometimes HOA's also would impact certain properties as Ive recently learned (there was even one area where apparently only 55+ aged residents were allowed to own..) 

There is some verbiage on the deed that says the title is marketable and free and clear of all encumbrances, and that Grantor will warrant and defend the title against the lawful claims of all persons whomever, other than the following: easements, restrictions and rights of way of record and to any utility lines in existence over or under the subject property.I don't understand how this could be missed during two separate closings over the years. 

Hi everyone,I am curious if Covid has created any new restrictions for cash out refinance options or equity lines in California.  

The catch is finding a good deal that isn't restricted by HOA by-laws!
