I just found a nice multi-unit deal in Cathedral city, CA.

What's a realistic rental income for Cathedral City (right next to the Palm Springs city border)? 

I have been looking pretty hard in the Palm Springs area around Indio, Cathedral City, and Palm Dessert area for short term rental properties.

We were lucky enough to find our last HH (3 unit Cathedral Hill) fairly quickly, but many new buyers can plan for a ~6 month journey.
