Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1987
I have been a real estate investor for more than 30 years and do my own property management. I had been in the steel distribution business during that time with a family business and then working for a larger company. Now as an industrial landlord, I rent to two recyclers; one does glass and the other aluminum. I rent this condo for fun so that I can meet interesting people who want a short term lease. I only rent furnished and advertise on a few websites for rental. If you have a question about steel or a specific term when you would like to visit, please email me.
Why the Owner Chose Santa Monica
When I was in high school, we would bicycle to the beach in Santa Monica to meet our friends. I liked it so much, I bought a place when this was built and used to live here until 1996. When I started traveling a lot for business, I began renting it furnished thinking I would come back eventually. Then, I met my wife and she had a dog so I bought a house near the ocean with a yard. I'm still trying to get back here. Some day, I shall return.....
The Unique Benefits of this Condominium
I'm an L.A. native. I grew up here. No one knows L.A. like I do. This is the best part of L.A. that is still close to things to do. You can walk to everything, or take Santa Monica's great mass transit. Some of the city's best restaurants are here, movies are close by, and let's not forget the beach for body surfing!! The Farmer's Market is a half a block away on Sunday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. There are summer concerts on Santa Monica Pier for free.

Positive Rating
This place was my residence from the time it was constructed until 1996. It's very convenient to Main Street restaurants and shopping and fronts the Santa Monica Beach. I began renting it when I travelled extensively for business and it stayed rented, primarily to people in the entertainment, hotel, and advertising industries. I just began advertising on VRBO and have a number of inquiries. No one has ever been unhappy with the accommodations here. There's a Farmers' Market 1/2 block away on Sunday and the beach is enjoyable in all kinds of weather. If the HOA would allow dogs, my wife and I would move back. Call me or Duane for more information.
