How this works in California
Investment property in California: the local rules.
Timeline & foreclosure
California's NOD-to-trustee-sale timeline is ~120 days. If you have equity to protect, we can usually close in 14–21 days and stop the clock before the sale date.
California is a non judicial foreclosure state.
Closing custom
Escrow agents handle California closings — no attorney fees on your end. You select the escrow/title company that's closing the deal.
Local demand
High equity statewide means terms deals (owner-financing) often net you 10–15% more than a discounted cash sale. We give you both numbers so you can pick. Bay Area, LA, San Diego, and Sacramento have the most competing buyers.

Glossary
Key terms for investment property in Santa Rosa.
- ARV (After-Repair Value)
- What the Santa Rosa property will sell for once renovated. Drives every offer formula; sanity-check it against sold comps within a half-mile and the last 90 days.
- 70% rule
- Max offer ≈ (ARV × 0.70) − rehab. A starting point, not a law; tight markets routinely transact at 75–80% of ARV.
- Assignment
- Selling your purchase contract to another investor before closing. The end buyer takes title; you collect an assignment fee.
- DSCR loan
- Debt-Service-Coverage-Ratio loan that qualifies on the property's rent — not your personal income. The standard way to scale past Fannie's 10-financed-property cap.
