Thanks, everyone! Because it’s a starter home for me, I’m looking on the more affordable end but in a convenient location. It’s a balance of finding an affordable place that can still rent for enough to make it worthwhile. If Clairemont is not good value for rental vs purchase price, what areas are better?
I’ve been checking craigslist for a couple months and there aren’t actually many homes for rent in the north clairemont area. Most of the ones listed have been listed a long time because they’re asking over $2400. I wondered if one of the houses I mentioned could more easily rent for $2300, or if that would still be difficult.
sdduuuude, for $2800/month what kind of home price would that come to for purchase? How many beds and baths? I also have concern that if I get something too high-end there is more time searching for tenants between tenants. Maybe not as many people are looking to rent a high-end home in Clairemont.
On the Mt La Platta property, is that area desirable for renters? It will probably go before I have a chance to see it.
