Recently Sold ~ 4Plex ~ 614 Kentia Avenue, Santa Barbara, CA 93105

Recently Sold ~ Represented Buyer

614 Kentia Avenue
Santa Barbara, CA 93105

4-Plex consisting of four 2B/1B units. Rents ranging from $1450-1550/unit.
Close proximity to downtown, schools, parks, the bike path, and freeway access.
Laundry on site.







This particular escrow took 7 months to close, due to some repairs that needed to completed. The property had been in escrow prior to our escrow, when a buyer discovered mold at the property. That buyer canceled escrow after his request for a large credit was declined. I heard about the shaky escrow & informed my client. We wrote an offer immediately, making it part of our offer that the mold work be completed prior to the close of escrow. It was a large feat and very costly to move out and rotate four sets of tenants & fully remediate the mold, and put the building back together, but the Seller held up their end of the agreement & performed the work as agreed. The property was fully rented again before the close of escrow. This property makes for a great long-term investment!
