Eastlake is a small subdivision within the larger city of Chula Vista. It's a popular location for families, as there are a number of good schools in the area and plenty of 2+ bedroom homes. It's also a hot spot for military personnel due to the nearby base. The area is very suburban, filled with plenty of strip malls, parks, and restaurants.
These are the year to date stats as of June 2022. For monthly stats, visit the San Diego Association of Realtors website.
Eastlake (often interchangeably called Otay Ranch, which sits a bit further southeast) is a large neighborhood of Chula Vista that is mostly composed of families. Highly rated schools and a large military presence makes for short days on market and top-of-market rental rates. Any and all shopping one could desire is available in one of the many large shopping centers in Eastlake.
Eastlake can feel like a bit of an island due to its distance from San Diego. Commuters may have to pay for the toll road on highway 125 if heading northward and returning south home. Though most homes are not more than a couple of decades old (leading to less maintenance costs in general), the architecture can feel a bit cookie-cutter and bland. The homes may lack the character of North Park Craftsmans, but they still always rent very quickly.

Good Life has experience renting in the Belleme community and can speak to its incredible popularity--multiple apps are always received almost as soon as the listing goes live! This 3B/2.5BA townhouse has more of a detached home feel with the front yard and bright rooms. A two car garage is very attractive for a renter and the low HOA fees at just $210 are attractive for the investor!
**Disclaimer: Keep in mind that when we analyze potential rental properties, we are very conservative in our numbers. We use an average market rent and account for all property expenses like maintenance, capital expenditures, vacancy, and management fees. Expenses are also estimated on the higher end. In reality you should see the rental properties performing slightly better than analyzed. We prefer to be pleasantly surprised rather than disappointed with property performance!**
