Wasn't this previously occupied by the Presidio Trust's first executive director (James Meadows, as I recall)? It is a beautiful house in a stunning location that appears to have recently undergone some interior renovations as well as some landscape upgrades. Even at $15,000 a month, I don't think the Trust will have any trouble renting it.

Here's one for the rent vs buy analysis people to chew on. Rents must come down or salaries must increase for people to afford this kind of property!!! This craziness cannot go on forever so I'm just going to keep buying property until this insanity corrects itself.

I was considering renting this property. But it turns out the rental application must be accompanied by a non-refundable $38 application fee. $35 and under, I would consider, but $38...

I just got back from Maui. Considering what rents for $15,000 a month there, this place is a steal.

From what I hear, the Trust has had no problem whatsoever renting its uber-expensive properties. As I understand things, some of the renters are homeowners who have cashed out and chosen to rent temporarily rather than buy again. And besides, what they offer is utterly unique: historic homes in a National Park. The good news is that the rents go toward maintenace of the park, so I'm hoping the Trust can squeeze every last nickel out of these properties.
