A great opportunity to get into Montecito Heights at a terrific price. This single level residence is on a hillside cul-de-sac and has been tastefully renovated with pride and skill. Period details have been left in tact and blend seamlessly with modern updates including new flooring and a kitchen with wood cabinets, stone countertops and stainless appliances. Among upgraded systems are electrical, plumbing and a/c. Bedrooms are well-proportioned and include a Master Suite with flexible space to use as an office or dressing area, plus an attached remodeled bathroom. French doors open to a flat back yard with mature fruit trees. A newly-built wooden deck takes in westward views colored with nightly sunsets and the verdant hills of Mt. Washington. Montecito Heights sees few homes for sale, no surprise given its proximity to Highland Park, DTLA, Pasadena and South Pas. The hiking trails of Debs Park are mere blocks away and there is quick access to the 110 Fwy and Gold Line rail.
Among our newest listings is this remarkable property, a fourplex in Glassell Park. The street-to-street compound includes a gorgeous, completely remodeled 2000+ square foot Spanish style home plus three casitas, aka the rental units of your dreams.

The casitas are arranged around a courtyard, completely detached with their own meters for gas and electric plus laundry hook-ups. Best part? VACANT! All of them. You can move right into the main house and start renting out the casitas at market rates.

If you are looking to buy a house on the Eastside, you already know the story: prices are rising. Read this fascinating article on Medium and you will understand why the Tracy Do team supports the development of new housing in LA.
We’re not saying that homes should be built “wherever.” But make no mistake, sensible urban density is the only answer moving forward. Without it, our crisis of soaring rents and a lack of affordable entry-level housing will only get worse, just as it has for our upstate neighbors in San Francisco.
From today’s Los Angeles Times, and this is certainly the primary reason behind the high cost of local housing right now. Another more underlying factor, in our experience, is that we see a lot more buyers moving here from other places, namely NYC and the SF bay area.
Believe it or not, our market is “a bargain” compared to theirs.
As frustrating as this is — don’t be frustrated. We can help, and will show you around pockets throughout the Eastside communities that we serve where prices are more attainable for many buyers.
