About this property

Located in the heart of Santa Ana’s evolving urban core, this classic 1915 residence offers a rare opportunity for buyers looking to build equity in one of Orange County’s steadily revitalizing neighborhoods. Featuring approximately 1,731 square feet of living space on a 6,250 square foot lot, the home offers strong bones, generous living areas, and the character of early California architecture. For first-time homebuyers, this home may represent one of the more attainable entry points into the Santa Ana single-family market, especially for buyers willing to invest sweat equity over time. Santa Ana also continues to support homeownership through programs designed to assist qualified first-time buyers with down payment assistance (Check with your lender and city of Santa Ana for available programs).

Loan assumptions and ownership costs

Blank costs are excluded, not confirmed to be zero. Get taxes, insurance and HOA estimates for this property; prior-owner taxes may change after purchase. Mortgage insurance depends on your loan—ask your lender.

Enter your rate and costs, then calculate.

Illustration only—not a rate quote, preapproval, lending offer or affordability determination.

Excludes closing costs, utilities, maintenance, special assessments and other unentered costs. Actual payments and escrow can differ. Review a Loan Estimate with your lender.
