Pick your neighborhood
Central San Diego's small apartment buildings were built in waves: Craftsman bungalow courts in the 1910s–1930s, two-story walk-ups and six-unit buildings in the 1950s–1960s, and larger stucco buildings in the 1970s–1980s. Each neighborhood has its own mix, its own buyers and its own questions. Our office is in North Park, and these four ZIP codes are where we know the buildings, the owners and the recent sales best.
On each page you'll find what the local building stock looks like, what buyers ask about, and how to get a free list of recent sales near your building.
