Pros & Cons

Pros

High Income Potential: The property is advertised with a potential to generate up to $9,450 in monthly rental income, with the added security of potential Section 8 tenancy, ensuring consistent cash flow.
New Construction & Modern Amenities: Two of the four units are brand-new (built in 2025, assuming recent completion) featuring luxury finishes, Calacatta Quartz countertops, mini-split heating/AC, smart mirrors, and modern appliances.
Multi-Unit Investment Opportunity: Comprising four distinct units (2-bed/2-bath, 1-bed/1-bath, and two new 1-bed/1-bath units), this property offers diversified income streams and flexibility for investors or multi-generational families.
Individual Utilities & Energy Efficiency: The two new units are all-electric with individual electric and gas meters, and energy-efficient split AC/heating systems, promoting lower operating costs and tenant responsibility.
Prime Location & Views: Situated in a prime Los Angeles location near schools, shopping, and public transportation, the property also offers desirable 'City Lights' and 'Neighborhood' views.

Cons

Unit Count Discrepancy & Permitting Risk: The property is described as a '4 unit investment opportunity' but listed with a 'Duplex' subtype, which could indicate unpermitted units or a misclassification, posing potential legal and permitting challenges.
Existing Long-Term Tenants: The front house is occupied by 'long-time loyal tenants.' While stable, this may imply below-market rents, potential rent control limitations, and challenges for a new owner to increase income or occupy the unit.
Recent Price Reduction: The property has undergone a significant price reduction from its original list price of $1,275,000 to $1,150,000, which could suggest overpricing or a lack of buyer interest at the initial price point.
