    David, what street was this on? What do you think of the area east of Bird, closer to Almaden and Vine? I’ve been watching that for many years waiting to see if it starts to transition as housing prices keep going up.

    Hi Joyce, this was on Hull ave, the last street that keeps you in the willow glen neighborhood/willow glen school districts. This sale definitely pushed the envelope for price point in that area. When I purchased originally the appraiser had a hard time giving an ARV of 1.35 million, but I knew people were going to continue getting pushed out of the inner more prestigious (and more expensive) willow glen streets and would ultimately push this area of willow glen up in value.

    I have completed a couple of new builds in this exact area and in surrounding areas as well, and while I do think there are good profit margins to be made and a lower entry price to get you there, it ultimately depends on what your exit strategy would be. Can you tell me a little bit more about what investment strategy or strategies you have been looking to implement?
