Condos and student housing

More than half of the housing units in Grantville are rentals. Condominium complexes and townhouses occupy the western side, while more apartments are to the east. These developments often provide amenities such as community pools and fitness centers. "Many homes closer to San Diego State University campus are investment properties that rent to groups of students," says Robert Brown, a local Realtor with Fantastik Realty. Union Grantville opened in 2023 as a major housing complex for SDSU students. Properties in Grantville, built in the 20th century, are listed for sale with interior upgrades starting at $400,000 and going up to $700,000. Although the housing stock leans heavily toward attached properties and multifamily units, a handful of ranch-style houses are found near the Allied Gardens community. Potential buyers can expect to pay between $725,000 to $1.2 million for one of these single-family houses.
