Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1947, this multi-unit property is functional and occupied but shows typical signs of aging infrastructure. Exterior photos reveal dated stucco, window-mounted AC units, and older electrical meters. The listing's description of 'value-add potential' and the lack of interior photos strongly suggest that the kitchens and bathrooms are likely outdated and would require modernization to achieve market rental rates.
With current rents performing below market rates, this 5-unit property offers a clear opportunity for investors to increase cash flow and overall asset value through strategic repositioning.
The inclusion of a rear carport provides essential off-street parking, a highly competitive amenity in the Bell Gardens rental market that helps maintain high occupancy levels.
The property sits on a generous 11,139 square foot lot, providing a substantial footprint that may offer future development potential or the addition of ADUs to further maximize ROI.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 2488, other record living area = 2402.
Constructed in 1947, the property may require more frequent maintenance and capital expenditures to update older systems and maintain modern safety standards.
Totaling only 2,488 square feet for five units, the average unit size is relatively small, which may limit the property's appeal to larger families and cap the maximum achievable rent per unit.
