Opportunity in Burbank

Address: 1723 Landis St. #204, Burbank, CA
Bedrooms: 2
Bathrooms: 2
Size: 1,064 sq. ft.  

Burbank is an upper middle class city in Los Angeles County. It is home to numerous media firms such as Nickelodeon, Disney, and Warner Brothers. It has good public safety ratings and is patrolled with its own dedicated city police. While the schools are not as highly ranked as Arcadia, it is one of the more desirable locations in the county, being within 15 miles of downtown Los Angeles and major employment areas in Glendale and Pasadena.

This condo unit was built in 1993 and appears to be in decent condition. Here are some pictures to give you a visual:
