Guadalupe is a small agricultural town on the northwestern edge of Santa Barbara County, set among the strawberry and vegetable fields near the mouth of the Santa Maria River and the vast Guadalupe-Nipomo Dunes. The economy is deeply rooted in farming and produce work, and the housing stock is among the most affordable on the Central Coast, concentrated Downtown and along the Pacific Street and Highway 1 corridors. As the town sees renewed interest and infill activity, investors are finding a low-basis entry point with genuine value-add potential.
Fidelity Funding lends directly across the Central Coast, and our asset-based model fits Guadalupe's practical, affordable market. We underwrite the property and the plan rather than a borrower's income history, and close in as little as five to seven business days. Whether an investor is modernizing an older Downtown Guadalupe home, holding a rental on DSCR terms backed by the ag workforce, or funding small commercial along Pacific Street, our capital moves at a pace that keeps low-priced inventory from slipping away.
Guadalupe's combination of $600K-range housing basis and steady working-population rental demand produces some of the cleaner DSCR yields in California.
Most Guadalupe files we fund are DSCR rental holds against a $600K-range entry basis with steady working-population tenant demand. Local pocket coverage includes Downtown Guadalupe, South Guadalupe, Pacific Street corridor, Highway 1 corridor and adjacent Guadalupe submarkets.
