“Bay Villa commanded significant investor interest and 12 written offers, which is a testament to the location, the strong recent performance and the future upside potential. 

 “We are living in a rental world right now and properties like Bay Villa will continue to be in very high demand for investors.  As brokers, our only problem is that we do not have enough of this type of inventory to sell” recounts Babb.
