This property is non-owner occupied..with 4 tenants and steady rents.

It's a slow and steady, long term game. 

The general trajectory has been upward to nearly $1,000/sq ft, with some brief pullbacks along the way.Based on the historical price per square foot data for zip code 95111 in San Jose from December 2022 through May 2024, here is my projection for the median price per square foot over the next 12 months:MonthProjected Median $/sq ftJun 2024$985Jul 2024$1,010Aug 2024$1,035Sep 2024$1,060Oct 2024$1,085Nov 2024$1,110Dec 2024$1,135Jan 2025$1,160Feb 2025$1,185Mar 2025$1,210Apr 2025$1,235May 2025$1,260Key points:The median $/sq ft has been on a steady upward trajectory, increasing from around $700/sq ft in late 2022 to nearly $1,000/sq ft by mid-2024.Assuming this trend continues at a similar pace, I project the median price per square foot will reach $1,260 by May 2025, an increase of about 28% from the $985/sq ft in May 2024.

You make a good, steady salary without all the ups-and-downs sales agents experience.

They said I don't need the insulation - because the DeHu will keep the temperature in the crawlspace mild, year round. 

What options do I have to help my tenants to have some type or relief from the upcoming hot temperatures?

Having that sort of liquid money will attract a lot of attention here:)  so maybe go slow but steady and meet in real life , do vetting etc of your PM .. you know what I mean

Most of my clients invest in Florida, North Carolina, Texas, and Arizona because of the price point and steady income flow. 

I have a separate, steady full-time job that would allow me to take on the negative cash flow every month.Note: The home is already 100% furnished, so there is no need to buy furniture.Appreciation and Loan Pay-Down:I would offer $550k as the purchase price.

I know people that have owned storage units for over 20 years and they tell me vacancy rates go up and down but it's generally pretty steady.
