Central Ave has a number of unique, local restaurants and drink spots (laundromat speakeasy with bottomless mimosas and Cuban food on Sundays).Good luck!

Highlighting unique property features is essential.

One of my rental properties is located in a low-income area, which presents unique challenges in finding suitable tenants.

I'm happy to hear my experience isn't unique! 

But I’ve found that a well-chosen angle or a unique architectural detail can give guests a mental anchor point.. something that says, “Yes, this is a real place with character.”

The low income versus high cost of living is referred to locally as the sunshine tax. https://www.businessinsider.com/most-expensive-places-to-liv...https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/sandiegocitycal...It is my view that the incomes cannot sustain the high cost of housing in San Diego but it has seemed this way to me for four decades and yet the RE prices keep increasing.

If you’d been holding around $620K from a 2019 sale and directed it toward a few properties like that.. especially if you leveraged financing.. you might’ve grown your portfolio’s total value well beyond what many Los Angeles holdings would have delivered over the same period.Then again, L.A. still has that unique mix of robust demand and limited supply.. from what I’ve heard, you can see impressive long-term gains there if you’re comfortble navigating tenant protections.

Spanning more than 8,000 square feet, this outlet will feature a large outdoor patio overlooking the Strip and a unique company store selling exclusive merchandise alongside your favorite burgers.

Me and my partner both bring things to the table that the others don't.
