Years ago, when I was just starting out in real estate, the very first Long Beach home I sold was also the very skinniest. Located at 708 Gladys in the Rose Park Historic District of Long Beach, it was just 9 feet wide. Word on the street was that it had been featured in the Guinness Book of World Records. I remember the day after I saw it, I received a call from a potential buyer who told me she was looking for something different, something with character and history for $100,000 or under. "I have just the home for you," I told her. It was just $99,000. She wrote an offer on the spot. A few years later, she moved and I sold it again -- and this time, the home was written up in the Los Angeles Times, the Long Beach Press Telgram. I was even interviewed on Good Morning America -- my two...

I bought my first home in the Rose Park neighborhood of Long Beach years ago and have been hooked on the area ever since then. I love helping home buyers and sellers in the Rose Park area and have now sold many of the homes in the area multiple times. Many home buyers my team and I have worked with over the years were like myself, stumbling upon the neighborhood after looking at homes in nearby, more expensive Belmont Heights. When I first began selling real estate in 1998, many Realtors weren't familiar with the Rose Park neighborhood, but now it's become a popular, more desirable area. The Rose Park neighborhood of Long Beach lies between 4th Street & 10th Street, Cherry and Redondo. The neighborhood gets its name from a circular park at 8th and Orizaba. The neighborhood encompasses t...
