* Subject property listed price vs sold prices of comps.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1928, the property retains its original historic character but features a kitchen and bathroom that are significantly dated (>20 years old). While the 'vintage' elements are well-preserved and functional for the current tenant, the tiling, cabinetry, and fixtures require modernization to meet contemporary standards.
Situated on the 9th floor of the historic Villa Riviera, the unit offers breathtaking, unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean, Catalina Island, and the Queen Mary.
The property is Mills Act approved, providing owners with substantial property tax reductions, which significantly enhances the long-term investment yield.
The unit comes with a reliable, long-term tenant under lease until June 2027, ensuring immediate and stable cash flow for investors from day one.
The HOA fee of $1,200 per month is relatively high, which may impact the net monthly cash flow despite the inclusion of all major utilities.
With a lease in place through mid-2027, the property is unsuitable for owner-occupants looking for a primary residence in the near future.
Investor opportunity at the iconic Villa Riviera! This 9th-floor, 1-bedroom, 1-bath condo offers approximately 839 square feet with sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, Catalina Island, Queen Mary, and Long Beach coastline. The home blends historic character with functionality, featuring high ceilings, hardwood floors in the living area, a well-preserved vintage bathroom with original tile and tub, generous closet space, and flexible areas that can be used for storage or a home office. The unit is currently tenant occupied at market rent, with the lease in place through the end of June 2027, offering an investor immediate rental income with an established long-term tenant who would like to remain. Villa Riviera amenities include direct beach access, an oceanfront patio, barbecue area, shuffleboard, cabana with gas fire pit, and secure bicycle storage. HOA dues include cable, high-speed internet, electricity, gas, water, and trash. The unit is also Mills Act approved, offering the potential for significant property tax savings. A rare chance to own a tenant-occupied investment property in one of Long Beach’s most historic and recognizable coastal buildings.
