Overview
The property is located on Buena Vista Ave in Desert Hot Springs, offering a straightforward setup for tenants and owner-occupants who want the option to live in one unit while renting the other. The community’s Walk Score, Bike Score, and Transit Score indicate a primarily car-dependent lifestyle with limited walkability and modest transit support.
For tenants or buyers, the duplex configuration can support multiple household needs while keeping operations simple with two self-contained units and separate meters. The combination of a remodeled rear unit and the reported electrical work may appeal to buyers seeking a duplex they can begin using immediately, with an opportunity to capture rental income from one or both sides. The seller also notes possible rent of $1,500 to $1,600 per unit.
