Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1963 (61 years old), the property is well beyond the 20-year threshold for 'Fair' condition. While the exterior has been recently painted and maintained, the lack of mentioned interior renovations to kitchens and baths, combined with 'below market' rents and 'upside potential,' indicates the units are dated and require modernization to meet current market standards.
The property's C2 zoning offers unique versatility for investors, providing potential for future commercial development or mixed-use possibilities in a highly desirable area.
With all tenants currently on month-to-month leases and rents below market value, there is a clear opportunity for an owner to immediately increase cash flow and maximize ROI.
The building features separate gas and electric meters for all units and recently completed exterior repairs, reducing landlord overhead and immediate maintenance requirements.
Despite its proximity to the Altadena Meadows and hiking trails, the property lacks the mountain or city views often expected in this geographic region.
Built in 1963, the property may require interior modernization and system upgrades to compete with newer residential income products and attract premium rental rates.
