Architectural rendering — 56-unit luxury student housing development

The Opportunity

An entitled 56-unit luxury student housing development approximately 1/8 mile from the University of San Diego — walkable, bike-friendly and backed by parents who pay the rent, cosign the lease and auto-debit the payments. The project delivers a new generation of student housing with modern design, study lounges, collaborative spaces, secure access and fitness amenities — designed specifically for luxury student rental for maximum rental potential.

We are seeking a qualified buyer or developer to acquire this entitled opportunity. Approved plans for 56 large luxury residential units are in hand, alongside significant entitlement work already complete — with a process in place to continue seamlessly through plan check, so a developer can see exactly where the project stands and eliminate entitlement risk.

Location — Linda Vista | University of San Diego

Walk to campus. Ride the trolley. Live where demand never graduates.


6736 Linda Vista Road — Sophie's Place

Sophie's Place sits in Linda Vista, approximately 1/8 mile from the University of San Diego — a premier private Catholic university. Students, faculty and staff flock to the area, but purpose-built luxury student housing within walking distance is virtually nonexistent. Sophie's Place fills that gap with modern, secure, amenity-rich units built for the parent-backed rental market.

Families of USD students already spend $50,000+ annually on tuition — creating a unique parent-backed rental market that conventional multifamily simply cannot match.

Community Highlights

🏫️ University of San Diego

A premier private Catholic university — ~1/8 mile away. Walkable, bike-friendly, trolley-adjacent.

🏠 Linda Vista

Established San Diego neighborhood with strong rental demand, convenient retail, dining and freeway access.

🚲 Walkable & Bike-Friendly

Students walk, bike or trolley to campus — demand never commutes away.

💰 Parent-Backed Market

High-income families: physicians, attorneys, business owners, international families — the credit behind each lease is established.

Entitlements & Density Bonus

A Scarce Asset Class — Entitled & Ready to Move


Entitled & ready to move

Architectural plans for 56 large luxury residential units. Significant entitlement work is already complete — with a process in place to continue seamlessly through plan check, so developers can see exactly where the project stands and eliminate entitlement risk.

Build what the university cannot

University of San Diego students currently live in aging apartments, single-family rentals, converted homes and outdated multifamily. There is no modern, purpose-built luxury student product within walking distance of campus. Limited competition is protected by substitutable developable parcels — very few sites within walking distance of campus can deliver a comparable 56-unit student housing product.

Density Bonus Aligned — California Government Code 65915

The site is positioned to work with California's density bonus law — unlocking additional units and making the deal math even stronger. Continuing the entitlement process with a slight redesign to include the proposed amenity package keeps the path forward transparent for any incoming developer.
