About this House

PRICE REDUCED & GREAT CONDITION: 3237 Francis Avenue, a rare updated 4-unit, all 2bed, investment opportunity in the historic Gold Country community of Placerville, CA. Three year old roof, new electrical meters, new propane tanks, all washouts and main water lines recently cleaned! Situated just a short walk from the shops and restaurants of downtown Placerville, the property benefits from an irreplaceable location with strong tenant appeal. The building consists of four (2) two-bedroom, one-bathroom units, each averaging approximately 750 square feet. The spacious floor plans and walkable location have fostered long-term tenancy, providing a stable foundation with meaningful upside through repositioning and rent growth. Placerville's multifamily market is uniquely supply-constrained. With a population of 10,656 residents and zero new market-rate multifamily construction underway or planned, the city faces a severe shortage of rental housing. At the same time, high barriers to homeownershipdriven by elevated purchase prices and interest ratesfurther constrain mobility and reinforce demand for quality rental product. This dynamic creates a favorable environment for landlords, where the cost of renting continues to represent a meaningful discount to owning.

    "Eskaton has great dog paths, it's a retirement community in Placerville and very quiet and friendly. For the most part people pick up their dog doo but occasionally you get a few bad apples. But that's anywhere I think. Overall, the community has a lot of different diverse walking paths with poop poles strategically placed. "
