If you buy me a nice Sichuan lunch which is hard to find anyway, I can refer a trusted realtor (hard to find too) for you, lol. She will help you find a tenant and do a year house inspection perhaps for 300 to 500 $ fee. She did this for me free.

If you want to buy in faifield here is some info

The area west of I-80 isn't termed Cordelia anymore, though. Colloquially, we call that Green Valley and what's east of I-80 (on either side of 680, we call Cordelia. In recent years, they've developed the area around Cordelia Road to be "Old Town Cordelia" with stamped concrete in intersections, old-fashioned street lamps, etc. It's not a well-traveled area, but it has it's new housing, and its old-farm houses too. Of course, most people think of Cordelia as all those gas stations and fast-food joints off of I-80 as a pit-stop for road-travelers, but there's a bit more than just that.

When you go west of I-80, you enter Green Valley, and although remnants remain of previous nomenclature (i.e. Fairfield-Cordelia Library and the Cordelia Fire Station), residents now refer to everything west of 80 as Green Valley, generally. I would assume that was Fairfield's game plan when developing that area - to tie it more so into the community of Green Valley which is set back slightly more on Green Valley/Rockville Road (and is absolutely gorgeous)

Regardless, both sides of 80 (and by extension, 680) are very nice with little-to-no crime whatsoever. West of I-80 is the nicer side, by far, and the further you go back into Green Valley Road/Rockville Road or Suisun Valley (near the college), the nicer it is, but there isn't one part that's run-down.

The Vintage Valley, development, is the one development that's worth noting. During the height of the market, everything sold like hot cakes, obviously but if you find the streets entitled Venus, Mural, and Trophy (off of Mangels) - each house was built with a mother-in-law suite above the garage. What seems like a cool idea then and probably helped them sell for slightly more has turned into a downside for the neighborhood in that many of them (which are basically studio apartments now) are being rented out. You have a lot of cars parked on the streets there and probably more people occupying the neighborhood than previously planned for.
