I like the outdoors, scenery and warm climates.

CA is still an Awesome state when you think of the width and breadth of it and no state has the diversity of out door pursuits..

I'm looking to build on the high end side of finishes, materials etc and also need parking spaces 2 per unit and thinking rooftops for the top floors and outdoor areas for the bottoms. 

My experience with all of our properties on what tenants will and won't pay for:Will: prime location; maximum square footage possible for the price range; an extra bathroom; good storage; no carpeting; accepting pets; fenced-in yard; central HVAC; main-floor W&D hookups.Won't: fancy appliances; upgraded counters; jacuzzi tubs; fancy outdoor spaces; throw-ins (lawn care, pest control, etc); fancy floors; fancy window treatments; Our tenants have consistently told us that they value the most space per dollar that they can get, in the best location, with basic amenities more than anything else.   

Not all but many tankless hot water heaters have freeze protection add ons that you can buy if its installed outdoors or in an uninsulated closet for something like an RV application so I would check with the manufacturers installation manual and see what their recommendations are.For a traditional hot water storage tank the risk of freezing while not 0 if very very low.

Renters will pay for: central heat & air, dishwasher, main floor/in-unit laundry, carpet-less home (laminate, tile, wood floors), off-street parking, fenced-in yard, dry storage (shed, clean basement), some type of clean outdoor space (patio, deck, porch).3.

I actually own 20 acres of ag land in Redding, but it's in Shasta County, and there is no pot growing outdoors allowed. 

In my free time, I enjoy reading, working out, exploring the outdoors, and exploring Seattle!

A mini split air conditioner has indoor and outdoor components, but it takes up a lot less space than traditional HVAC.

The sun 'n fun, ocean and outdoor lifestyle make it an easy transition for those looking to go from Blue to Red.
