Price Reduced! Secure day-one rental income in Irvine at just $669,000, more than $50,000 below today’s market value.
The most recent comparable sale in the community closed last year at $700,000. With a conservative appreciation of 1.73% over the last 12 months, that value is about $712,000 today. Adding this home’s extra half bath and superior upgrades brings fair market value closer to $727,000. At $669,000, you step in with instant equity.
A long-term tenant is already in place, paying $2,725/month through June 30, 2026. That means immediate income with no vacancy risk. With current market rent closer to $2,900/month, there is built-in upside when the lease renews.
