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.
That doubling is a catch-up, not a premium. Houses here were priced far below the rest of the city for decades, and first-time buyers using FHA loans closed the gap. There were only 129 sales in all of 2025 and about two months of supply, so there is almost nothing on the market, and what appears goes fast if it is clean. What does not go is the house with a bad roof, a converted garage without a permit, or an unpermitted back unit, because the buyer’s lender will not close on it.
The Southwest Fresno Specific Plan has been in place since 2017, there is new for-sale housing at Heritage Estates, and the Roeding Business Park brings jobs to the west side. Lots here are still inexpensive. We buy houses in 93706 to repair and keep or resell, and we buy the lots.

What we are sent from here most
- Houses with unpermitted additions The county record says 900 square feet and the house has 1,300. We buy the house that is there.
- A parent’s house, the family out of town Contents included. Take what matters and leave the rest.
- Big lots Many Edison-district lots are deep. A second unit or a lot split can be worth more than the house; see fresnolotbuyer.com.
- Behind on taxes, or a code case open Neither stops a sale. What is owed is paid at closing.
Questions
- Do you buy west of the 99?
Yes. The older streets along California, Church and Jensen west of the freeway are part of what we buy.
- Will you make an offer on a house that was in a fire?
Usually. Send photos. The offer may be subject to one look inside, and it will say so.
Send the address and what is going on with the house. You get a written answer, whether we would buy it and what we would pay, usually within two business days.
