Pros & Cons
Pros
Income-Generating Duplex: The property is a duplex with two distinct units (3B/2B and 2B/1B), offering excellent potential for rental income or owner-occupancy with supplemental income.
Prime Location: Conveniently situated in the desirable Alamitos Beach area, near downtown Long Beach, schools, and major transportation routes, enhancing its appeal to renters and residents.
Flexible Occupancy Options: The two separate units provide versatility for owner-occupancy, multi-generational living arrangements, or a pure investment strategy.
Favorable Zoning (LBR2N): Zoned LBR2N, which typically supports multi-family use and may offer future development potential, adding long-term value to the asset.
Separate Structures: Each unit is separately defined within two buildings, providing enhanced privacy for tenants and simplifying property management.
Cons
Historic Age: Built in 1919, the property is over a century old, suggesting a high likelihood of outdated systems (plumbing, electrical) and potential for significant renovation costs.
Small Rear Unit Size: The rear unit's 624 square feet for a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom configuration is relatively small, which could limit its rental appeal or achievable rent compared to larger units.
Potential for Deferred Maintenance: Given its age, the property likely requires substantial capital expenditures for deferred maintenance and upgrades to major structural and mechanical components.
