Introducing a prime investment opportunity in the heart of Los Angeles. This charming 4,188 SF building, boasting 4 units, seamlessly blends historic allure with modern upgrades following its 2019 renovation. Two of the four units were extensively upgraded as part of the recent renovation. This property ensures a strong rental demand with a 100% occupancy, an excellent unit mix of all three bedrooms, and over 25% upside potential in rental income. Over $200k was spent on capital improvements by previous ownership, which include electrical/plumbing upgrades, foundation retrofitting, new sewer line, and interior remodel of Units 2008 and 2008.5. Part of the scope of work for the 2018/2019 interior remodel was the addition of a bathroom to each of these two units, which increased the achievable market rents. The value-add in the property lies in an investor’s ability to remodel the two remaining units with similar interior upgrades/bathroom additions and increasing market rents for those units as well. There is also potential value-add by constructing multiple ADUs (buyer to verify). The long-term value is in the property’s ideal location in the revitalizing Mid-City/West Adams area between the Pacific Ocean and Downtown Los Angeles providing the prospect of solid long-term appreciation and tenant demand.

While built in 1923, the property underwent extensive capital improvements in 2018/2019, including electrical, plumbing, foundation retrofitting, and a new sewer line, which are critical system upgrades. Two of the four units were also extensively renovated in 2019 with modern upgrades and added bathrooms. This brings the core infrastructure and half of the living spaces into a 'good' condition, meeting current standards. The remaining two units require further renovation, which prevents an 'excellent' rating, but the significant recent investments in major systems and two units elevate it beyond 'fair'.
Pros & Cons

Pros

High Income & Occupancy: The property boasts 100% occupancy with strong rental demand and an excellent unit mix of all three bedrooms, ensuring immediate and stable cash flow for an investor.
Significant Value-Add Potential: Offers over 25% upside in rental income through remodeling the two remaining units and potential ADU construction, providing clear strategies for increased profitability.
Extensive Recent Capital Improvements: Over $200k was invested in 2019 for critical upgrades including electrical, plumbing, foundation retrofitting, and a new sewer line, significantly reducing immediate capital expenditure for a new owner.
Prime & Appreciating Location: Situated in the revitalizing Mid-City/West Adams area of Los Angeles, offering an ideal location between the Pacific Ocean and Downtown, promising solid long-term appreciation and sustained tenant demand.
Blended Historic Charm & Modernity: A 1923 building that seamlessly blends historic allure with modern upgrades from its 2019 renovation, appealing to a broad tenant base with updated living spaces in two units.

Cons

Partial Renovation Requires Further Investment: Only two of the four units were extensively upgraded, meaning a new owner will need to invest additional capital to remodel the remaining two units to fully maximize rental income potential.
ADU Potential Requires Buyer Verification: The opportunity to construct ADUs is presented as 'potential' and requires the buyer to verify, indicating uncertainty and additional due diligence, permitting, and costs before this value-add can be realized.
Age-Related Maintenance Considerations: Despite recent upgrades, the property's 1923 construction year may still lead to unforeseen age-related maintenance issues or require specialized upkeep not typically found in newer buildings.
