Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 1909 and shows signs of a renovation that is likely 20+ years old, evidenced by the dated large-format floor tiles and wall-mounted heating units rather than central HVAC. While the exterior features some updated vinyl windows and the structure appears functional, the interior finishes are dated and the overall condition requires cosmetic updates and system modernization to reach current market standards.
The property features a duplex configuration plus a vacant ADU, offering three potential income streams or a flexible owner-user setup in a high-demand rental market.
Situated near USC, BMO Stadium, and the LA Memorial Coliseum, the property is ideally positioned for student housing or short-term rental opportunities with excellent freeway access.
With the seller facilitating 'cash for keys' and the ability to set market rents from day one, investors can maximize their return on investment without traditional tenant turnover hurdles.
The surrounding public schools have consistently low ratings, which may limit the property's appeal to long-term family tenants or owner-occupants with school-aged children.
Built in 1909, the property's age may necessitate higher maintenance costs and potential upgrades to aging infrastructure compared to more modern residential income properties.
