We look for multifamily properties of 5+ units in areas such as Northwest Bakersfield, East Bakersfield, and Oildale — from well-kept stabilized buildings to properties that need renovation, better management, or lease-up.

Bakersfield Seller FAQ
Which parts of Bakersfield do you buy in?
We look across the city and its surroundings — Northwest Bakersfield, East Bakersfield, Oildale, and Southwest Bakersfield — and we will review a property outside those areas on its own merits.
What drives rental demand in Bakersfield?
Demand in Bakersfield is supported by energy and agriculture, logistics and healthcare employers, and some of the most affordable pricing in California. We weigh those fundamentals, along with the condition and rent roll of each building, when we set a price.
What if my Bakersfield building has vacancies or deferred maintenance?
That is often where we add the most value. We buy buildings that need renovation, new management, or lease-up, and we account for that in our offer.
Do you work with Bakersfield brokers and agents?
We do. Agents can bring us listed or pocket-listing deals in Bakersfield, and we keep every conversation confidential.
What should California sellers know about property taxes?
Under Proposition 13, a sale resets the assessed value to the purchase price, with a base rate of about 1% plus local assessments, and annual increases capped at 2% afterward. We model the reassessed tax bill in every offer.
