984, 988 Mission Dr | Contiguous Fourplexes 984 Mission Dr

The Bridge Multifamily Team at Cushman & Wakefield is pleased to present an exceptional investment opportunity in the sought-after Mesa Del Mar enclave of Costa Mesa: 984-988 Mission Drive. This unique offering features two adjacent four-unit apartment buildings, built in 1964, each situated on a 6,935-square-foot lot with well-maintained landscaping that reflects well-kept property. New electrical panels and a roof tune-up with 5-year warranty completed in 2024 also.
These buildings offer a diverse configuration of units, including a 3-bedroom/2.5-bathroom townhouse, a 2-bedroom/1.5-bathroom townhouse, a 1-bedroom/1-bathroom unit, and a studio. Residents enjoy amenities such as a gated, lush community courtyard accessible from both the front and rear, six single-car garages, and a community laundry room. Each property is individually metered for gas and electric, and additional income is generated from the laundry facilities and garage rentals.
Strategically located, this property offers easy accessibility to the best of Costa Mesa, including South Coast Plaza, The Camp, The LAB, and the Harbor Blvd shopping corridor. Tenants benefit from quick access to major freeways, including the 405, 55, and 73 Freeways.
This well-maintained property represents a secure investment in a prime location, with upside potential. Extensive interior renovations across both 984 and 988 Mission Dr include complete remodels in several units with new kitchens, flooring, and bathrooms, while others have partial updates or require further improvements. While recent renovations and updates have improved the property, there remains value-add potential. Several of the current rents are below market, offering opportunities for rent adjustments. Additionally, multiple units could benefit from further upgrades. Moreover, there is potential to develop Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) in the courtyards, which would further enhance rental income. Many property owners in the Mesa Del Mar area have already capitalized on identical lots by constructing ADUs in the courtyards and underutilized garages, further demonstrating the potential of this investment.
This property offers not only a secure investment but also an inviting residential haven at the heart of Costa Mesa’s vibrant offerings. There is no doubt that any apartment investor would be compelled to consider 984 & 988 Mission Drive!
