in Capistrano Beach
Capistrano Beach is a neighborhood that is relaxed at its core. It’s a great commuter neighborhood if you’re commuting to central Orange County or Northern San Diego County, as the 5 freeway has an on-and-off ramp in the neighborhood. Capo Beach may be the perfect place to invest if you’re looking to live near the beach with the commotion of a touristy beach.
Pros of Investing in Capistrano Beach
Capistrano Beach is an in-demand location with a lot of properties often on the market. Homes sell quickly in Capo Beach, and the time continues to improve each year—the average time to sell was 39 days on the market in 2024 compared to 60 days in 2023. And with just over ⅓ of all houses being renter-occupied, there is clearly a demand for new rentals in the area.
Cons of Investing in Capistrano Beach
While living in a non-commercialized area might seem like a dream for some, if you’re looking to live on the beach and walk to grab a coffee, Capo Beach might not be the place for you. Capistrano Beach isn’t the best choice if you’re looking for a neighborhood with more of an active nightlife. Because of the quiet nature of the area, Capo Beach has a lot of sober living homes. While this isn’t a con, per se, it is something to keep in mind when investing in the area.
