800 Garcia St, Mendota CA Multifamily Investment
Neighborhood occupancy is strong and renter demand is durable, according to WDSuite’s CRE market data, positioning this 2006-built, 81-unit asset for stable operations. Renter-occupied housing is prevalent locally, supporting a consistent tenant base.
The Mendota neighborhood shows solid occupancy fundamentals with neighborhood occupancy competitive among Fresno’s 246 neighborhoods and in the top quartile nationally, based on CRE market data from WDSuite. A relatively high share of housing units are renter-occupied, indicating depth in the tenant pool and support for leasing stability.
Livability is more utilitarian than amenity-rich. Retail, cafes, parks, and pharmacies are sparse in the immediate area, so residents often rely on regional corridors for services. Average school ratings in the area are below national norms but are competitive among Fresno sub-areas, which investors may factor into leasing strategy and resident retention planning.
Vintage matters: 2006 construction is newer than the neighborhood average (late 1980s). That can provide a competitive edge versus older stock while still leaving room for selective modernization of interiors and building systems to enhance rent positioning.
Within a 3-mile radius, population and household counts have risen in recent years, and forecasts point to continued household growth alongside smaller average household sizes. For investors, that combination suggests gradual renter pool expansion and steady absorption potential, supporting occupancy stability. Elevated home values relative to incomes in the neighborhood context point to a high-cost ownership market locally, which tends to reinforce reliance on rental housing and can aid lease retention.
Comparable crime metrics for this neighborhood are limited in the current dataset. Investors typically benchmark safety using metro and national references; where confirmed, trend and comparative context (rather than block-level claims) should guide underwriting and resident experience planning. Continued monitoring of official city and county reports can clarify trends over the hold period.
- Con Agra Foods — food processing (23.9 miles)
Regional employment is driven by food processing and related industrial employers, which support workforce housing demand and commute convenience for residents.
This 81-unit property’s 2006 vintage positions it favorably against older neighborhood stock, with potential to capture additional value through targeted renovations and system updates. Neighborhood occupancy trends are competitive within the Fresno metro and compare well nationally, and the local renter-occupied share supports demand resilience. Within a 3-mile radius, recent population growth and a projected increase in households point to a larger tenant base over time, aiding leasing velocity and reducing downtime.
Home values are elevated relative to local incomes, which typically sustains rental reliance and can support pricing power when paired with prudent lease management; rent-to-income levels suggest room for thoughtful repositioning. According to CRE market data from WDSuite, neighborhood fundamentals indicate steady renter demand, though amenity-light surroundings and below-average school ratings warrant conservative assumptions.
