Rare owner-user and investment opportunity in the heart of Santa Ana. 821 S. Orange Avenue is a duplex consisting of two 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom units, with one unit being delivered vacant at closing, allowing an investor to immediately capture market rents or an owner-occupant to offset housing costs with rental income. The property features individual garages, a spacious lot, and strong long-term rental demand driven by its central Orange County location. Situated minutes from Downtown Santa Ana, the Artist Village, government and employment centers, shopping, dining, and public transportation, the asset benefits from excellent connectivity to the I-5, SR-55, and SR-22 freeways. With stable in-place income, immediate upside through lease-up of the vacant unit, and continued demand for affordable rental housing in a supply-constrained market, this property offers an attractive flexibility and future appreciation potential.
