Selling a sofa bed in Riverside

Riverside, in California, has around 315,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Los Angeles, San Diego and San Jose are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
