Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1989, this property falls within the 25-40 year age bracket and serves as a high-occupancy student rental. While the kitchen has been refreshed with stainless steel appliances and stone countertops, the cabinetry, basic tile flooring, and bathroom fixtures appear dated and consistent with the original construction era. The home is functional and well-maintained for its use case, but lacks the comprehensive recent renovations or modern aesthetic required for a higher rating.
Situated in the high-demand Isla Vista student housing market, the property is just minutes from UCSB and one block from the ocean, ensuring consistent occupancy and long-term desirability.
Boasting a projected monthly rent of $13,000 and a 4.53% CAP rate for the 2026-2027 academic year, this asset offers a robust and predictable income stream for investors.
The existing garage offers a significant upside opportunity for conversion into an additional bedroom or efficiency unit, allowing owners to increase density and maximize ROI.
As a high-occupancy student rental, the property is subject to accelerated wear and tear, likely requiring more frequent repairs and intensive management than a standard residential home.
The property's valuation is heavily tied to the university's enrollment and student housing trends, making it less attractive to traditional owner-occupant buyers and sensitive to local regulatory changes.
