I’d buy it for $450,000 and I am not even in the market.
I think most likely sale price after seeing the pictures is $520,000.
Another interesting OB property you may have seen is the building with a pet bird store next to Roberto’s. I checked it out, for the size, location, and favorable commercial zoning, the asking $750,000 was pretty reasonable. I have long wanted a commercial building with offices for my business so I can stop renting.
Then I realized the problem: it is next to Robertos. There are drunks and stoners there all day every day and all night, and bums hang out on the tables at night. Even a 1/4 block down Voltaire might be OK, but not right next door.
Same problem for the little three building compound owned by an artist next to Jack in the Box that was on the market for about $850k last year but did not sell. That is an even bigger hangout for bums and drunks.
Last time I was in Jack in the Box there was a woman sleeping on Jack in the Box lawn next to a shopping cart with her bare ass completely 100% exposed to the air. I called the non-emergency police line, who then transferred me to the emergency medical line that sent an ambulance.
I can live with this a block away, but not next door.
