Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This two-story, walk-up multifamily property offers 19 residential units with a unit mix of studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom homes. The seller reports that all units were completely redone in 2018–2019, including interior hallway renovations. Additional capital improvements cited in the remarks include a new water heater in 2023 and replacement of over 100 feet of sewer line. Onsite laundry is available in the basement, and the building is master-metered for utilities.

The property is located in the Historic District and is described as being blocks from Downtown Long Beach, including the area around Pine Avenue with bars and restaurants. The building has no onsite parking; however, parking structures within blocks are described as available for tenant rental.

For tenants and operators, the combination of updated unit interiors, professionally managed ownership, and on-site laundry supports a straightforward residential experience. The current unit count and studio-to-two-bedroom mix can provide flexibility for leasing, while the master-metered setup may be a consideration for buyers evaluating utility management. The listing notes that qualified buyers may request additional information, including a rent roll.
