There are some great buys on residential income properties in this market. In fact, there are often multiple offers, yes I said multiple offers, for the best ones. I have come in second on the last two residential income offers I wrote. Consequently, my buyers and I are still shopping.
Today I saw another property of interest on the MLS, I previewed it, sent the information to a client and did some research on REAP in Los Angeles. Rent control applies to this property and all LA City residential income buildings built before 1978. However, the listing stated, "In REAP." I had to look that one up! Here's the link that explains REAP in LA!

Palos Verdes Luxury Coastal Homes and Equestrian Estates are my specialty and area of expertise, but serving all your real estate needs-from the first home to the retirement retreat- is my goal.
Palos Verdes Realtor since 1992--After making numerous corporate moves, my family "settled" in Palos Verdes in 1989. When my youngest child started school, I signed up for real estate classes. After buying and selling homes all over the USA, it was a natural fit. I certainly have first-hand knowledge of selling and buying a home "on the fly." A first-rate real estate agent can make the difference between disaster and delight!
Seniors Real Estate Specialist--Downsizing can be traumatizing, especially if it occurs due to death or illness of a spouse, not to mention the overwhelming chore of the actual move. I recognize seniors require extra help with exploring their options and making the myriad of decisions involved during this transitional time.

The Palos Verdes Peninsula is a unique coastal setting in Los Angeles County with four distinct cities. The west side of "the hill" is Palos Verdes Estates. Here you will find oceanfront mansions, hillside villas, tree-lined streets, winding drives and breathtaking views. It's rare to find a single family home for less than $1M.
Rolling Hills Estates occupies the north side of the peninsula. This is horse country. Peacocks roam the roads, horseback riding trails and riding rings are woven throughout the city.
The east and south sides of the hill is home to the largest city on the peninsula--Rancho Palos Verdes. The east side of the hill offers the 24 hour view of the Los Angeles Harbor, the spectacular Vincent Thomas Bridge and coastal views from Malibu to Newport Beach. The south side of the peninsula hugs the coast, offers sweeping ocean views and is the resort side of the hill. It is home to Trump National Golf Course and Trump Homes. Lowe's new oceanfront resort is under construction.
At the top of the hill is Rolling Hills. It is a gated city with its own fire department and police force. If it's acreage you're looking for, you've arrived. The setting is exclusive, the views are spectacular and privacy abounds.
It has been my privilege to sell properties in all four of the Palos Verdes Peninsula cities.
