@SDGIS Yep. Probably an ADU add on top of the garage at that price. But your point is dead on. Appreciation alone over that period in my neighborhood was almost 15%, which is a ton - especially when a property is worth $1.5M.

We're notifying local businesses that enforcement of Temporary Outdoor Business Operations regulations will not begin until Monday, Aug. 2. The deadline for compliance was pushed back to allow business owners more time to make any necessary changes.

#COVID19 relief is here! @CityofSanDiego just enacted a temporary moratorium on evictions. Now San Diegans won’t have to worry about losing their home or storefront. My Small Business Relief Fund was also just approved by the City Council to help local businesses make payroll.
