Detached single-level 5BR/2BA house plus two townhomes, one block off Garnet Ave in Pacific Beach. Live in the front house and rent the back, or hold all three. Current rents $16,000/mo ($192,000/yr), a 5.90% cap on a buyer's basis. Tenants pay water, sewer, trash, SDG&E and internet, and reimburse the City trash fee. The front house (~1,150 sf) has a fireplace, fenced patio yard and 2-car driveway.
