About Tehachapi

Tehachapi is a city in Kern County, up in the Tehachapi Mountains along Highway 58 between Bakersfield and Mojave. It’s known for its historic downtown, the famous Tehachapi Loop railroad, the wind farms on the surrounding ridges, and cooler weather than the desert below, including the occasional winter snow. Outside of town, mountain and gated communities offer larger lots, and some of them have HOA dues, private roads or wells. Those details affect your payment and the loan paperwork, so Gaby helps you plan for them early.
