The Roosevelt district, ZIP 93702, runs east of downtown between Highway 180 and Kings Canyon Road, around Roosevelt High and Dickey Playground. It is the part of Fresno we are sent the most: 1920s to 1960s houses on ordinary city lots, many held by one family for twenty or thirty years.

Casa Fresco buys for its own account. Nobody at Casa Fresco is your agent, and you may get more by listing; we say so when we think so. Sam Fox Brennan, California real estate broker, DRE #02178674.
Houses here more than doubled in price between 2019 and 2025, from a median of $156,000 to $289,000, faster than any part of Fresno except Southwest Fresno. That is not because the houses changed. First-time buyers with FHA loans set the price of a move-in-ready house, and a house that is not move-in-ready sits. Most of what is for sale in 93702 at any time is picked over within two weeks, and what is left needs work a lender will not finance.
The city has pre-approved plans for second units on these lots, and the Central Southeast Specific Plan is meant to add housing along Ventura and Kings Canyon. Voucher rent limits for a two-bedroom here are at or above what the market charges. Those are the reasons we buy in Roosevelt and keep what we buy.

What we are sent from here most
- Houses full of a parent’s things Inherited, out-of-town family, nobody has the weekends. We buy them with the contents.
- Rentals an owner is done with Long tenants, a unit not seen in years. We buy with the tenants in place.
- Garage conversions and back rooms without permits Common in Roosevelt. We buy the house as it is and take on the permit question.
- A roof, a sewer line, a 1950s panel Eduardo prices the work. The offer reflects it; you fix nothing.
Questions
- Is a house in Roosevelt worth listing instead?
Often, if it is move-in ready. A clean three-bedroom in 93702 sells in days on the open market and you would do better listing it. A house that needs work, or has a tenant in it, is a different conversation, and that is the one we are for.
- What streets do you mean by Roosevelt?
Roughly from Highway 180 south to Kings Canyon Road and from First Street east to Chestnut: the streets around Roosevelt High, Dickey Playground and Mayfair’s southern edge, plus the Ventura and Kings Canyon corridors.
