This Stable Income-Producing Duplex in Lincoln Heights is listed at $849,999, reflecting a strategic price improvement to capture market interest. While positioned above the $782,385 Fair Market Value, the asset’s long-term value is secured by a generous 6,751 SF Lot offering significant ADU Development Potential. Currently maintaining a Condition Rating of 4, the property features well-kept interiors but utilizes dated climate control systems that offer clear paths for future appreciation. Located near USC Keck School of Medicine, this is a resilient acquisition for Buy-and-Hold Investors or Owner-Occupants.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1921, this duplex is well-maintained but shows clear signs of age. The property utilizes dated climate control systems including window AC units and wall heaters. While the interior features functional tile and laminate flooring, the exterior siding and awnings are aged, and the overall infrastructure lacks the comprehensive modern updates required for a higher rating.

Ideally situated with swift access to the 5, 110, and 10 freeways, and close proximity to USC Keck School of Medicine and the Metro Lincoln Heights Cypress station.
Built in 1921, the property may require more frequent maintenance or capital expenditures for aging plumbing, electrical, and structural components.
The use of window air conditioning units and wall heaters instead of a modern central HVAC system may limit the property's appeal to premium-tier tenants.
The immediate neighborhood elementary schools have lower performance ratings, which could be a deterrent for families with school-aged children.
