Serra Mesa’s central location puts MCAS Miramar, Naval Base San Diego, and Mission Valley within easy reach — making it a natural fit for military families. I’m Dan Dennison, a former U.S. Naval Officer and Military Relocation Professional with 40+ years in real estate, and I help service members buy and sell in Serra Mesa on PCS timelines.

Serra Mesa is a central San Diego neighborhood in ZIP code 92123, on the mesa between Mission Valley and Kearny Mesa, bordered by I-15, I-805, and SR-163. It is made up mainly of single-family homes built in the 1950s and 1960s, including the Cabrillo Heights area, with some condos and townhomes.
That freeway access means reasonable commutes to MCAS Miramar, Naval Base San Diego, and other installations, plus quick trips to Mission Valley and SDSU Mission Valley. I help active-duty buyers use VA loans and tour remotely, and help military sellers decide whether to sell or rent when new orders arrive.
