240 Market Rate Unit Development | Fully Entitled & Construction Ready on the Central Coast

Marketing description

Mesa Trails Apartment Community presents a rare opportunity to acquire a fully entitled, 240-unit market-rate multifamily development in Nipomo, California, one of the Central Coast's most attractive and supply-constrained housing markets. Situated on approximately 8.86 acres with direct access to U.S. Highway 101, the project combines entitlement certainty, strategic regional connectivity, and exposure to a market where demand for quality housing continues to exceed available inventory.

The project received full approval from the San Luis Obispo County Planning Commission in February 2024, including Conditional Use Permit approval and CEQA clearance through an adopted Mitigated Negative Declaration. With all major discretionary approvals secured, a new owner can advance directly toward construction permitting, eliminating a significant portion of the entitlement risk, cost, and timeline typically associated with multifamily development in California.

Nipomo occupies a strategic position between Santa Maria and San Luis Obispo and benefits from access to the Central Coast's primary employment centers, educational institutions, healthcare providers, and regional economic drivers. Supported by a diverse economy and an increasingly affluent population base, the area continues to experience sustained housing demand while maintaining significant barriers to new supply.

As one of the few large-scale multifamily development opportunities on California's Central Coast offering both entitlement certainty and market-rate positioning, Mesa Trails represents a compelling opportunity to deliver new housing in a market defined by strong fundamentals, limited inventory and long-term growth potential.

Investment highlights

  • De-risked entitlement at $31,250 per unit - CUP approved February 22, 2024; appeal window closed without challenge, CEQA complete via adopted MND
  • A submarket with no competing product and no pipeline - Nipomo has delivered zero market-rate apartment units in 2025-2026
  • The most affluent renter pool on the corridor - Nipomo's average household income of $127,169 exceeds both San Luis Obispo and Santa Maria
  • Midpoint of a two-county employment base in expansion - Within commuting range of Vandenberg SFB, Cal Poly, and Diablo Canyon
  • Conservative rents with embedded upside to new institutional comps - Pro forma rents price within 5-20% of market's newest institutional communities
  • A growth corridor validated next door - Nipomo grew 44% from 2000 to 2020, with Dana Reserve master plan confirming institutional conviction
