The vibe
A working-class city with deep history and pockets of beauty (Point Richmond, Marina Bay) being rediscovered. Where Roger’s current duplex listing on Van Fleet Ave lives.
Who loves it
Investors looking for rental yield in a transit-rich city, and buyers who see where Point Richmond and Marina Bay are headed and want to be there before the rest of the Bay figures it out.
What it isn't
A homogeneous market — Richmond varies block-by-block in a way few East Bay cities do. The trick is knowing which blocks.

Insider note from Roger
The Annex (where the Van Fleet listing lives) is quietly one of the best value-per-sqft plays in the inner East Bay. Point Richmond holds value through downturns better than the rest of the city.
