I Tried Buying The Cheapest House In California

Рет қаралды 985,839

Жыл бұрын

When I saw a home in California listed for $20,000 it brought me down a rabbit hole of wanting to buy it, but is it really worth it? Check out the $18,000 House: • Inside America's Cheap...
Curious about this home? Here is the listing: www.redfin.com/CA/Palm-Spring...
I couldn't believe how cheap this house was listed for, and of course it was too good to be true BUT even at $200,000- it was still the cheapest house for sale( that wasn't a total shack with no running water or electricity). It has so much potential with the midcentury modern butterfly roofline, I had to atleast entertain the idea of buying it. What do you guys think of Windy Point?

Back in 2007, during my time working in real estate, I witnessed people purchasing newly built homes from builders with the plan to sell them before the closing of escrow to another buyer for a profit. The crash hit hard and fast, and I vividly recall many of these units ending up foreclosed upon, with the builder's plastic still covering the carpets.

Most people find it difficult to handle a fall since they are used to bull markets, but if you know where to look and how to maneuver, you can make a size-able profit. Depending on how you intend to enter and exit, yes.

Accurate asset allocation is crucial. Some use hedging or defensive assets in their portfolio for market downturns. Seeking financial advice is vital. This approach has kept me financially secure for over five years, with a return on investment of nearly $1 million.

I have property in the area and the trees look like tamarisk trees. They are a good windbreak, and grow well in the area because they can tolerate a lot of sodium in the soil, but they can be a huge nuisance. They grow to be huge, their branches are huge, and they break off constantly and usually unexpectedly. There are much better trees for residential areas.

Hi Monica, It's my first time watching one of your videos. I'm a contractor in California, specifically in the Los Angeles area. However, I'm very familiar with the Palm Springs area, especially Windy Peak. I strongly advise against buying this house unless you plan to tear it down and build a new one. Here's why: The house was previously used as a marijuana grow operation. I can tell because of certain signs, such as the floors being ripped out and replaced with cheap laminate later on. This is a common practice when selling such properties. The return duct grille is completely rusted. In indoor marijuana grows, houses are sealed to prevent neighbors from smelling it. However, the high humidity within the sealed house causes metal, like the return duct grille, to rust. There are patched-up holes throughout the house. Growers typically run pipes through walls, and these patches are evidence of that. The toilet is black, a result of chemicals flushed down during the growing process. The showers are brand new because workers need a clean place to shower due to the high humidity and pollen from the plants. Most of these workers are Russian, Armenian, and Ukrainian women who are accustomed to cleanliness. Now, the reason I strongly discourage buying this house is that it's been infested with dangerous mold. No amount of lime or mediation will fix this. Marijuana grows create a humid and hot environment, perfect for breeding dangerous pathogens. I'm surprised the seller didn't disclose this information.

A: 1. Thousands of feet from the mountain; no danger. 2. Water comes from (Desert Water Agency) DWA private wells up Blaisdell Canyon to the south. All the water is tested by DWA and is clean and healthy. No sodium fluoride. 3. Most homes are on septic. (Depends on inspection). 4. Most are not drug dealers. Most are blue collar workers or retirees. Some artists. 5. Windiest time of year is spring. Hot summers, perfect fall and Winter. The wind in the spring can rip your clothes off. 6. Saturday nights are quiet. Not many parties/ rare. The wind keeps them inside in the spring. 7. Roofs can be replaced and sewer lines don't last forever. Most of the local builders have run into all of these problems and more. They are all fixable. The home sold for 250k.

One photo looked liked termite damage. It may need to be torn down and start all over building from scratch.

@deborahcurtis1385 Жыл бұрын

that may be why it got pulled from the market. Someone got an inspection report with termites listed.

Can you make more videos on your journey as an agent? Like why did you choose this career over insurance or tech sales? Pros and cons of being an agent? How much a 3rd or 2nd-year agent makes?

I was born and raised in the Palm Springs area so I looked this place up.... it's actually considered part of Palm Springs. And yes it's always very windy there because it is situated at the start of the Coachella Valley where the mountains are close together. It's the reason there are so many windmills close by cuz that is the windiest part of the Coachella Valley. I would not have bought that house so it's good that you didn't buy it!

Or maybe buy the house but use the land to install a windmill and sell the energy to the power company.

Does the wind come from the Santa ana mountains ?

@SnakeHelmut 6 ай бұрын

The wind comes from the funnel effect between the San Jacinto Mountain range and the San Gorgonio Mountain Range. It's also a result of prevailing wind direction and elevation change. The wind keeps the area cooler, fresher, and quieter than other parts of the desert. @@ianmangham4570

I looked at that house 7 years ago and couldn't find a realtor who had any information. There was nothing burned at that time. Very strange area out there at night, and there are some real oddballs living out there..!! Basically you'd be all alone, and I mean alone. I was going to start a Fat Farm with running/walking paths up to the mountains.., and of course it does have a Palm Springs mailing address..(chuckle)..!!

When it’s windy in “Windy Point” your car will be sand blasted of all it’s paint!

@TenderheartPC 11 ай бұрын

I live in the valley. It's incredibly windy when the season shifts due to the temperature difference between the top of the mountain and the valley floor. When the mountains are snowcapped (particularly San Jacinto) and the desert is warm it keeps the valley cool. When the wind stops, that's when we start getting heat waves. You learn to appreciate it.

The cheap old house had a lot of character but definitely needed a lot of work to be done. I'm excited to see the house you did end up buying though!

If you wanna be successful, you must take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.

@SnakeHelmut 6 ай бұрын

There are homes in Windy Point that were built in 1959 that are still standing today without earthquake damage. 64 years later. Earthquakes happen a lot in the Coachella Valley -- most are too small to ever notice, but even the bigger ones don't do much.
