Ohana Hale Residences is a fully permitted, shovel-ready 6,393 SF student housing development opportunity with a carrier SFR. The project's student housing income model of 27 leasable beds at a blended market rent of $1,800 per bed per month may produce a Stabilized Pro Forma Gross Income of $618,924 with NOI of $378,659, far exceeding typical investor expectations for newly constructed UCSC-proximate housing, represents an acquisition and construction at a compelling discount with major developer upside embedded in the as-completed spread. The market has already spoken on this block. Next door, 251 High Street, a conventional, unfurnished building with only ~40% student occupancy and no per-bed premium - recently traded at a 3.88% cap rate. Apply the same cap rate to Ohana Hale's fully furnished, 100% per-bed student model: the developer/buyer could realize up to $4M in equity at completion with an IRR well over 50%. The comp is next door. The upside is in the math. Purpose-built for the UCSC off-campus market, 247 High St provides an investor with the ability to acquire fully entitled, permit-ready land with approved plans for a new student housing project featuring 27 beds and 12 bathrooms across 7 units without the time and cost of navigating the complex entitlement process.

A quiet neighborhood near Lighthouse Field and West Cliff Dr. The house sets back from the street with front and back yards. The interior is spacious and comfortable, with several skylights. There is a family room on the front with a bathroom that could be used for a studio apartment. For 50 years our parents lived there and created their Santa Cruz dream. Now it's time for someone else to move in and make their dream come true! Just a few steps from the ocean. There is prime surfing, scenic walking and bike paths, the historic lighthouse and it is close to the pier and the boardwalk. The neighborhood is quiet with many long time residents. In the morning you hear seals rather than the din of traffic.
