This historic Residential Income Triplex presents a High-Potential Investment Opportunity with a List Price of $1,199,000—positioned slightly above the $1,139,136 Fair Market Value. While the property requires modernization given its Condition Rating of 4, the 4,258 square foot layout and 12-bedroom configuration offer significant density for rental income. Located near major employment hubs and transit, this asset is ideal for Buy-and-Hold Investors or Value-Add Developers looking to reposition a historic asset in a high-demand Los Angeles corridor.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1910, this property is well beyond the 20-year threshold for dated status. The listing description emphasizes 'historic character' and the 'opportunity to reposition and add value,' which typically indicates dated kitchens, bathrooms, and systems. The exterior photos show aged siding and window AC units, suggesting a lack of modern central HVAC, placing it firmly in the category of needing updates and minor repairs to maximize its potential.
With 12 bedrooms across a triplex configuration, this property offers exceptional rental scale and density, making it an ideal candidate for high-yield residential income or co-living strategies.
Situated minutes from Downtown LA, Koreatown, and USC, the property sits in a high-demand rental corridor with excellent access to major employment hubs, transit, and cultural centers.
The large 4,258 square foot interior and historic 1910 character provide a significant canvas for investors to renovate, reposition, and capture substantial equity growth in a supply-constrained market.
The ratio of 12 bedrooms to only 5 bathrooms represents a significant functional challenge that may limit tenant appeal or necessitate costly plumbing upgrades to meet modern market expectations.
As a structure built in 1910, the property likely requires ongoing maintenance and potential modernization of aging systems, such as electrical and plumbing, which could impact short-term cash flow.
