Built in 1923, this multi-unit bungalow court is aged but functional. While the description mentions a $50,000 remodel, this amount spread across 10 units suggests only minor cosmetic updates rather than a full renovation. The property retains original features like oak hardwood floors and tiled counters, and the exterior images show weathered concrete and dated fixtures consistent with a property that is maintained through regular upkeep but remains largely outdated.
Situated on a rare 21,717 square foot lot with LARD 1.5 zoning, this property offers substantial room for expansion or the addition of new units in the high-demand Echo Park market.
The 10 individual Spanish-style bungalows provide a private, residential feel with separate meters and private yards, a highly desirable layout that attracts quality tenants and commands premium rents.
With a solid 5.1% current CAP rate and all tenants on month-to-month leases, there is an immediate opportunity to increase rental income to reflect current market values in a gentrifying area.
As a collection of 10 separate structures built in 1923, the property carries higher long-term maintenance risks and capital expenditure requirements for multiple roofs, foundations, and plumbing systems.
Many of the immediate neighborhood schools are rated poorly (ranging from 2 to 4), which may limit the property's appeal to families and impact long-term tenant stability for the larger units.
