Half of the properties we manage are in there.<\/p>\n<p>I was a skeptic, at first. I was bearish on everything south of the I-10 in Avondale \u2013 and that kind of &#8220;redlining&#8221; is not wrong for investors: Values will lag if there are already too many rentals in the area. This is nothing but economics, so it might be kinder to call it &#8220;greenlining.&#8221; Regardless, Coldwater Springs not only enriched the community, it has pulled up its entire corner of town.<\/p>\n<p>This is ongoing, first with better-heeled new subdivisions in competition nearby, then with commercial development along Van Buren Street and Avondale Boulevard, and now with a new freeway exit, a coming-soon fire station and easy access to the best charter school in the state.<\/p>\n<p>Coldwater Springs is a bet that continues to pay off. If you&#8217;d like to own a piece of it, I have an investor opportunity going on the MLS on Thursday. Occupied by wonderful tenants, under lease until 1\/31\/2022 and eager to renew, the house is the 1524sf Lavender floorplan \u2013 very popular, consistently punches above its weight \u2013 on a premium corner lot. I hate to lose the house and the tenants, but we&#8217;ll be in the neighborhood for another twenty years, at least.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>In other news:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>CNBC:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2021\/06\/22\/us-existing-home-sales-may-2021.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">May existing home sales drop for a fourth straight month as affordability squeezes buyers out.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>The New York Post:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2021\/06\/21\/most-big-cities-have-become-more-racially-segregated-study\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Most big cities have become more racially segregated: study.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Daniel Greenfield:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frontpagemag.com\/fpm\/2021\/06\/small-secessions-new-civil-war-daniel-greenfield\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Small Secessions of the New Civil War: Neighborhoods secede from cities, cities from counties, and counties from states.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Brad Polumbo:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/fee.org\/articles\/we-just-got-even-more-proof-that-stay-at-home-orders-lethally-backfired\/?utm_source=zapier\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">We Just Got Even More Proof that Stay-At-Home Orders Lethally Backfired.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Joel Kotkin:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/unherd.com\/2021\/06\/the-battle-between-the-two-americas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The battle between the two Americas.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cWhy will puppies try to eat almost anything?
