Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1959, the property is functional and has undergone a soft-story retrofit, but interior finishes are dated. While it features some newer flooring and stainless appliances, the presence of popcorn ceilings, tile countertops, and wall heaters indicates the systems and aesthetics are over 20 years old and need modernization.
Elementary School: Franklin Elementary School (9/10).
Situated just off the prestigious Montana Avenue, the property boasts an exceptional walkability score to high-end boutiques, Trader Joe's, and top-rated schools, ensuring long-term desirability and high tenant demand.
The building features a rare and highly lucrative mix of five 3-bedroom units, which are in high demand for families and high-income renters, offering significantly more rental upside than standard studio or one-bedroom buildings.
Being located in Santa Monica, the property is subject to some of the most stringent rent control ordinances in the country, which may complicate the process of achieving the 'massive upside' in rents mentioned.
With only six parking spaces for six units—five of which are 3-bedroom residences—the 1:1 parking ratio is low for multi-car households, which may be a drawback for premium-paying tenants.
