CBRE finalized the sale of a 13-unit multifamily property at 553 and 555 Victoria St. in Costa Mesa. The transaction closed at $8.6 million, reportedly the highest price per unit achieved for a multifamily property in Westside Costa Mesa over the past 18 months.

EVP Dan Blackwell, SVP Mike O’Neill and associate Jack O’Connor represented the Costa Mesa-based private seller, a repeat client. The buyer is a private investor based in Huntington Beach.

“This transaction underscores the continued strong demand for well-located multifamily assets in Westside Costa Mesa,” said Blackwell. “Leveraging our market knowledge and investor network, we generated significant interest and achieved a record price per unit for our client. The deal was creatively structured with seller financing, which was key to unlocking a strong sales price and achieving this record-breaking outcome for our client.”

The property was on the market for the first time in more than 47 years.
