just a year ago a Chinese was killed under broad daylight for no reason, random murder. And then another guy who was interviewing with Google was robbed and killed around there at night. Oakland Chinatown is a war zone.
I don't think either of those were in Chinatown. The former was on Telegraph and 19th or so, and the latter was at 19th and Webster. Chinatown is below 12th St, more around 8th or so. Both occurrences were sad events, and shouldn't have happened, but they didn't happen in Chinatown. Just because "a Chinese" is killed doesn't mean it happened in Chinatown.
$2500 in rent there is really pushing it, actually I would say it's nearly impossible for that property. I have friends that own multiple multi-unit properties throughout Oakland, the only way you will get more than $800 or so a month for a one bedroom in Oakland is if it is in the Temescal/Rockridge area, not in a dump on a busy street west of 580.

Hi,
Seems like a great buy right here:

You should be able to get around $2,500 in rent from this place. Was taken off the market after just 1 day.
Curious to see what this goes for.
