Listing remarks MLS

Welcome to the beautiful city of Pico Rivera! This amazing mixed-use property is now available on the market, offering a total of four units and incredible versatility. The two front units are currently being used as a workshop but can easily be converted into retail, office, or other commercial uses. The property also features two residential units: one located on the second floor, offering a spacious 2-bedroom, plus bonus room, 2-bath layout that has been recently remodeled with recessed lighting, high ceilings, new flooring, and updated kitchen cabinets. In addition, there is a detached two-story unit with a 1-bedroom, 1-bath layout, also recently remodeled with recessed lighting, fresh paint, and new flooring. The property includes a 1-car garage with washer and dryer hookups, a driveway that can accommodate multiple vehicles, and convenient alley access for additional parking. All units are currently tenant-occupied, but some units maybe deliver vacant at COE making this an excellent opportunity for investors seeking steady cash flow or for an owner-user looking to operate a business while generating rental income. This property offers endless potential and will not last!

🏷️ Possibly a rental listed for sale. The $949,999 price doesn't fit this home's estimated sale value (~$1,239,249) and the remarks read like a rental — treat the cards below with caution.

What this means for you Summary

Snapshot

  • This is a 3×3bd/2ba + 1×1bd/1ba units multifamily listed at $950k.

Deal economics

  • At list price, monthly cash flow is $2k ($18k/yr) — positive. Per door: $384/mo.
  • The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
  • Meets the 1% rule at list price ($10k rent vs $950k).
  • Recommended offer: $893k (6.0% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
  • Cap rate 8.2% vs local median 2.7% in Pico Rivera — top-decile yield for the area; either an underpriced asset or a hidden risk that comps aren't pricing in. Stress-test before assuming the spread holds.

Location & tenants

  • Location reads 61/100 on livability (#511 in CA) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: commute A+, employment A; Watch: schools D+, crime D-, amenities D-.
  • Montebello Unified (suburban): math 17% / reading 32% proficiency, ranked #419 of 517 in CA (top 81%) — low school quality limits family demand, transient renter base, plan for 1-2y turnover; 76% free/reduced lunch — lower-income household profile, screen leases tightly.
  • Market conditions: Rents rising fast (+4.1%/yr); 70 active listings in the ZIP; solid renter incomes; 19,697 units permitted in Los Angeles County in 2024 (9,426 in 5+ unit buildings).
  • At $10,253/mo this rent would consume 139% of the median local household income ($88k/yr) (locally 1257% of renters already pay >50% of income on rent) — very limited rent-growth headroom before tenants either downsize or default.

Forward outlook

  • Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $7k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $28k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
  • Los Angeles County population projected at +9% by 2050 — modest demand growth; plan on rents tracking national, not racing it.

Negotiation context

  • It's been on market 72 days — a 6% lower offer ($893k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
  • 13 sale attempts since 9y ago; this cycle's ask has dropped $50k (5%) from the opening price — seller is motivated, your offer sets the floor, not the list.
  • Current owner paid $500k; list at $950k implies a 90% gain — meaningful room to come down on a strong offer.

Risks & watch-outs

  • Watch-outs: built in 1927 — expect roof / HVAC / electrical / plumbing capex.
Recommended offer $892,999 (6.0% below list)

Questions for the listing agent

  1. It's been on market 72 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 6% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
  2. Can we see the unit-by-unit rent roll, current vacancy, and any below-market leases? What's the average tenancy length?
  3. What capital expenditures (roof, boiler, parking lot, exteriors) have been made in the last 5 years, and what's planned in the next 2?
  4. Built in 1927 — when were the roof, HVAC, electrical panel, plumbing, and water heater last replaced?
  5. Why hasn't it sold? Are there any deal-killer items the seller is aware of (foundation, flood, title, zoning, code violations)?
  6. Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
  7. Schools are D-rated, which usually means shorter tenancies and higher turnover. Who's the typical renter profile here, and what's been the actual vacancy rate?
  8. Crime grade is D in this area — have there been break-ins, vandalism, or insurance claims at this property in the last 3 years? What carrier currently insures it and at what premium?
  9. What's the average days-on-market for RENTAL listings here right now (not sales)? A rising rental-DOM trend means longer vacancies and softer asking-rent achievability than the comps imply.
  10. What's the recent tenant-quality profile in this submarket — average credit score on applications, eviction rate, late-payment / NSF rate, and stable-employment percentage? A property-management company in the area should have these aggregated.
  11. How much new apartment / multifamily construction is in the pipeline within 1–3 miles? Heavy new supply (>2% of stock underway) typically softens rents 12–24 months out; light construction supports rent growth.

For passive investors: Depreciation is non-cash, so a rental often shows a tax loss while cash-flowing — sheltering income. Rental losses are passive: they offset passive income freely, and up to $25,000/yr can offset ordinary (W-2) income if you actively participate and your MAGI is under $100k (phasing out to $0 by $150k); unused losses carry forward. On sale, claimed depreciation is recaptured at up to 25%, and gains may owe capital-gains tax (a 1031 exchange can defer both). Figures are a year-1 estimate at your 24.0% rate — not tax advice; consult a CPA.
