    Overview

    1135 Leighton Avenue is an eight-unit apartment building constructed in 2019, totaling approximately 10,887 rentable square feet across two parcels totaling approximately 13,776 square feet. The property is zoned RD1.5-1-CPIO and is within a federally designated Qualified Opportunity Zone (QOZ). Each of the eight units is a three-bedroom, three-bath layout and includes an individually metered gas and electricity setup, along with a tankless water heater. Tenants are responsible for water, trash, gas, and electricity expenses, helping keep ownership utility obligations minimal. The property is subject to the Los Angeles Rent Stabilization Ordinance (LARSO).

    This offering is for sale in conjunction with 3944 South Budlong Avenue, and both properties must be sold together.

    With a total of eight modern residences, the building is suited for buyers seeking a small, operationally straightforward multifamily asset with clear unit-level metering and resident-paid utilities. The combination of recent construction, QOZ designation, and LARSO applicability provides important planning considerations for long-term operations in the Exposition Park area of Los Angeles.
