Analysis of 11850 Hawthorne Blvd, Hawthorne, California 90250 is currently available with a list price of $2,500,000. The property maintains a Poor Condition Rating (30/100), indicating the property requires renovation and updates to maximize its market potential. This presents opportunities for value-add investors. Located in a high-demand neighborhood within the Hawthorne Unified School District, this asset is categorized as a low-risk, high-reward acquisition suitable for Experienced Investors and Fix-and-Flip Specialists.
Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1932, this 94-year-old mixed-use property shows significant deferred maintenance and aged systems. While some residential units have received minor cosmetic updates (laminate flooring and basic oak cabinetry), the weathered exteriors, peeling paint, and dated wall heaters indicate a need for a major rehab. The listing's focus on 'value-add' and 'redevelopment potential' confirms the structures are nearing the end of their functional life.
Priced at just $152 per square foot, the property is listed significantly below replacement cost, offering investors a rare low-basis entry point into the competitive South Bay market.
Strategically located on Hawthorne Boulevard with 39,000 vehicles per day, the asset benefits from prime retail exposure and C-2 zoning that supports future redevelopment of up to 19,900 square feet.
With a projected 8% cap rate upon stabilization and exemption from LA City RSO, the property offers substantial growth through below-market rents and favorable annual increases under AB 1482.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 16375, other record living area = 8375.
Originally constructed in 1932, the building likely requires significant capital expenditure to modernize mechanical systems and address deferred maintenance inherent in a century-old structure.
The value-add nature of the investment requires immediate management oversight and capital to renovate vacant units and transition below-market tenants, which may impact short-term cash flow.
11850 Hawthorne Boulevard presents a compelling value-add mixed-use investment opportunity in the heart of Hawthorne’s thriving South Bay market. ***The property offers investors significant upside through below-market rents and residential and retail vacancies. >The 8,375-square-foot property sits on a 13,274-square-foot lot and consists of six one-bedroom apartments, two studios, and three street-front retail spaces. Strategically located along heavily traveled Hawthorne Boulevard, the property benefits from excellent visibility, strong traffic counts with approximately 39,000 vehicles per day, and diversified residential and retail income. Once stabilized, the property's projected cap rate is at nearly 8%. The residential units are not subject to LA City RSO and are governed only by California AB 1482, allowing annual rent increases of 8.7% as of August 2026 (5% plus CPI), subject to the applicable cap. The C-2 zoning may also allow commercial development, providing additional long-term redevelopment potential (buyer to verify). This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial South Bay asset with solid in-place income, immediate value-add potential, and multiple paths for long-term appreciation.>>See Supplements for OM<<
