EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Exclusive new listing: Prime 5-unit mixed-use property in El Sereno Los Angeles. Two of the units are vacant, with one under renovation and listed for rent. There is a 6th bonus unit on site.
The main power panel was fully upgraded with permit, all units individually metered. Ample on site, gated and paved parking, for 10. With double egress. Desirable C2 zoning allows a large variety of uses. Two streets of frontage, and a corner property, highly visible, and an easy to rent area.
Rare investment opportunity, the first time on the market in decades. This five unit, mixed-use multifamily property sits on two adjacent parcels in a high-demand commercial area of El Sereno, Los Angeles. Located seconds from Cal State, Alhambra, South Pasadena, and Highland Park, with direct access to Downtown Los Angeles, the property offers excellent visibility on Alhambra Avenue, a key corridor connecting Mission Road to major universities.
Strong rental upside with approximately 70% rental growth potential. At projected market rents, the property will stabilize at a 10% CAP rate. All tenants are month-to-month. The property includes four large residential units and one ground-floor retail space. A sixth bonus unit, formerly a studio apartment, can be leased for additional residential, commercial, or storage use. Once leased at $3 per square foot, the property’s CAP rate will increase to 6% next quarter.
A large, secured parking lot accommodates up to 10 vehicles, with potential for additional income through leased parking spaces. The property is zoned for mixed use, offering strong value-add potential through rent improvements and future development. ADU additions could significantly increase the unit count.
Strategically located in a thriving commercial and residential hub. Nearby employment centers include the Alhambra Office Complex, Grifols Corporate Campus, USC Keck Medical Center, Kaiser Permanente, and Cal State LA.
