Homes in San Leandro: what pros run into
Broadmoor and Estudillo Estates have homes from the 1920s to 1940s. BART has San Leandro and Bay Fair stations.
Washington Manor was one of many 1950s tract neighborhoods. Many mid-century homes have ducts in a crawl space or attic that were never sealed, and leaks there waste a lot of heated or cooled air. The city runs its own wastewater plant near the shoreline.
Many older homes near the Bay were built without central air, and ductless mini-splits are a popular way to add cooling. Salt air near the marina wears exterior metal.

Many older homes have raised foundations. Bay-O-Vista is a hillside neighborhood. The Hayward Fault runs along the east edge of the city. Those details help the heating and cooling company plan the visit.
