Here to help Redding, CA investors!
Hello all!
I have been a mail carrier in Redding, CA for the last 3 years. I have a massive amount of knowledge about the area, and specific streets and neighborhoods from the work that I do.
If you are someone that would like a second opinion about a property, street or neighborhood that you are planning to buy in the area, please reach out to me. Sharing knowledge and being helpful is what I love.
My partner and I bought our first flip a month ago and are not shopping for another investment at the moment, so nothing to worry about there!
There's been quite a boom in properties being bought by investors in our town. The popularity of Bethel Church has been bringing in thousands of renters from other states and countries over the last couple of years. The demand for rentals has been crazy from this.
What people also love about Redding is the location.
A 3 hour drive to the ocean,
2.5 hours to Sacramento,
3.5 hours to Reno, NV
2 hours to the Oregon border
1 hour drive to Mount Shasta (to play in the snow during the winter!)
And we have two pretty massive lakes that are popular in the summer.
During the summer though, there are wildfires every single year. Because of where Redding sits in this sort of bowl in the mountain range, smoke from even far away fires will sit on top of the town.
The heat in the summer gets to over 110° for several weeks (not fun for a mailman to be working in unfortunately)
There is a climbing homeless population in our town and rates of crime are not the greatest, but also not the worst. All of our future properties will have security systems on them for sure.
Prices of housing is not awful for California, but there are fantastic deals out there. We were able to get a fantastic deal on a 4 bedroom 2 bath last month
I would love to share my knowledge with you, and would love to get in touch and learn from other investors in the area!
