Mar Vista on the west side of the hill... Two good deals

Mar Vista has a few deals. there are some good ones that are on the west side of the Mar Vista Hill. It is totally amaising that the ones on the other side of the hill with some city views are going for such hugue prices even in this down market. Even on high traffic streets like Palms. (near Grandview)

So on the SFR deal of the week... The one that I do not think will last long is 13129 Lake Street. At only 775,000 it is just above the lot value. the home has great bones and floor plan that is workable. A front two can garage and some elevation that may someday be a little view if a second story were to be added. Mostly a cosmetic improvement to the interior would be all it needs. Bring it out of the 70's. Easy cosmetic remodel process. Fix it then move in or move in and then Fix it? I like this Fixer. Call me and I'll show you why.

On the Speculator side... The nicest view lot at an OK price in the area is 13000 Warren Ave. On the slope. Not too near the airport but still you will hear the jets. (gotta be honest on that.) But the view is worth it. The back yard slopes down to a wide alley and gives you a great opportunity for redesign and building in a garage and entertaining back yard. The house has no real flow or style worth keeping. A land play and opportunity to build your dream home or to speculate that you can build and sell for a big proffit. Are you a Builder type? Are you deep pockets and want to invest?
