The property is fully updated and currently leased to the Bakersfield Housing Authority, ensuring immediate, consistent cash flow and minimal initial maintenance costs for the investor.
With a spacious 10,066 sqft lot, the property offers the rare potential to add two Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), providing a clear path to increase density and total rental revenue.
Situated in the heart of Bakersfield within walking distance to Bakersfield College and public transit, the property is ideally positioned for high tenant demand and low vacancy rates.
Located in the 93307 zip code, the property may face challenges related to neighborhood perception and potentially slower long-term capital appreciation compared to suburban markets.
