Property Overview
About 254 Rosebud Ave
Appraised at $395,000 this year — an opportunity to buy a cash-flowing fourplex below appraised value and step into instant equity. One block from Ocean Drive, this 4,696 SF fourplex features four 2-bed/1-bath units on a 10,498 SF lot. Two units have long-term tenants at approximately $1,050/month each, while two operate as STR/MTR units at approximately $1,350/month each, for approximately $4,800/month in total rental income. Ideal for FHA or VA owner-occupants looking to house hack: live in one unit while rental income from the other three helps offset the mortgage. Also a strong fit for conventional, DSCR, cash, and 1031 exchange buyers looking for an income-producing property with built-in equity. The property is already operating, with additional upside through rent growth, STR/MTR optimization, light unit improvements, and potential RUBS implementation. Located in the established Del Mar/Bessar Park neighborhood, walking distance to Del Mar College and minutes from downtown and the Spohn Shoreline hospital district. Buy below a recent $395K appraisal, gain immediate equity, and own four income-producing units in a location with year-round rental demand.

Before you make an offer
Ask about foundation movement, since much of the city sits on expansive clay. On homes built before about 1975, ask whether the cast-iron sewer lines have been scoped. Check the flood zone and whether an elevation certificate exists. Ask for windstorm certificates on the roof, windows and any additions. On canal and bayfront homes, have the dock, boat lift and shoreline structures inspected. In newer areas such as the far Southside and London, ask which taxing districts and utilities serve the lot.
Windstorm insurance and flood zones vary by property; Marci can point you to the right specialist. This isn't insurance or legal advice.
Good to know
Conditions change across the city. Inland neighborhoods sit on heavy clay that calls for foundation care; island and bayfront neighborhoods add salt air, marine structures and windstorm certification to the checklist.
