Location: Coastal Orange County. High priority on proximity to the beach and easy commuting distance to Irvine and Costa Mesa.
The Lot & Development Potential
ADU Ready: Must have 600–1,000 sqft of available space in the backyard or side yard for an Accessory Dwelling Unit.
Low Maintenance: Minimal-to-no front yard preferred. Zero/Low tree density to reduce long-term landscaping and debris management.
Condition & Strategy
"Light Fixer": Seeking properties that require minor cosmetic updates (paint, flooring, light fixtures) rather than major structural overhauls.
Value-Add: The goal is to leverage minor defects for a purchase discount and build immediate equity through "flipping" small details and ADU development.
