Information about Redlands, CA

[Rachel S.]

My preference is to purchase a multi family in Los Angeles within the next year or so. However, in case the numbers do not work out for me, I am looking in the IE also. I already have a SFH in the San Bernardino mountains that I rent out. This cash flows and has appreciated nicely, because I bought it as REO at a rock bottom price. I was looking at Redlands because of it's proximity to Loma Linda University, hospitals etc, due to the potential for a pool of professionals with steady incomes. I have read that the majority of it is nice but there is one neighborhood that should be avoided. The post didn't specify where that was. Can anyone enlighten me?

Also, if anyone has any other areas in IE that they think I should consider I would love to hear about them.

Hi Rachel, I absolutely love Redlands for investing opportunity. I've lived here for over 2 years now and am in love with this area. You have class A tenants throughout, massive appreciation, and beautiful real estate. It's a great place to build up your rental portfolio and still cashflow out here. The neighborhood you should avoid is above the 10 freeway, near Orange Street. It's not the best area, but it is definitely up and coming, especially if you purchase near the college. Would love to speak with you more about Inland Empire real estate. I specialize in investment property out here and would be happy to answer any of your questions.
