The home
About 8226 Pennington Dr
Located in the highly sought-after beach-close community of Surfside by the Sea, this spacious townhome has the largest floor plan in the neighborhood. Residents enjoy resort-style amenities, including two swimming pools, a clubhouse, playgrounds, a basketball court, and scenic walking trails. Originally designed as a four-bedroom home, it has been thoughtfully reconfigured into a spacious three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence. Additional features include a private patio, tasteful upgrades throughout, and a two-car garage. This is an outstanding opportunity for an investor seeking immediate value without the hassle of finding tenants or managing a rental. The seller is willing to offer the property at a discounted price if she and her daughter can lease the home back, allowing her daughter to finish high school through June 2028.The discounted purchase price reflects the value of the leaseback, and the seller will continue to pay the monthly HOA dues during the lease term. It's a true win-win: the buyer acquires a desirable property at a below-market price with a reliable occupant already in place, while both buyer and seller may benefit from a lower property tax basis resulting from the reduced purchase price.

Estimate only, not a loan offer or quote. Principal and interest use the Freddie Mac 30-year fixed average of 7.03% (week of Sep 24, 2026); your rate will differ. A loan this size is typically a jumbo loan, which prices differently. Tax and insurance are modelled, not billed amounts; tax uses a typical Huntington Beach rate, excluding Mello-Roos. Verify all figures. Full assumptions and disclosures.
