211 Olive Residences Ready-To-Issue Multifamily Development Site | 15 Units | Downtown Redlands, CA 92373. Offered at $1,550,000. This is a fully entitled development opportunity in the heart of Downtown Redlands. The entitlement work is complete. The project consists of 15 market-rate residential units across two structures totaling 22,277 square feet. Eleven apartments occupy a three-story main building. Four ADUs occupy a separate detached structure. The unit mix is (3) one-bedroom one-bath, (7) two-bedroom one-bath, and (1) three-bedroom two-bath in the main building. The four ADUs consist of (2) two-bedroom two-bath units up to 1,150 square feet located on the north portion of the parking garage and (2) two-bedroom two-bath units up to 950 square feet in the detached stacked structure. Plans were designed by Gary Miller, AIA of Miller Architectural Corporation. All design disciplines are fully coordinated and approved. Architectural, structural, civil, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire, life safety, and landscape. The site is 0.39 acres and carries an AB 2097 parking exemption due to its proximity to the Redlands Arrow Metrolink station. On-site parking is provided. Downtown Redlands is a proven submarket.

What this means for you Summary

Snapshot

  • This is a 5-bed/4.0-bath multifamily listed at $1.55M. Condition is rated excellent.

Deal economics

  • At list price, monthly cash flow is $15k ($176k/yr) — positive.
  • The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
  • Meets the 1% rule at list price ($31k rent vs $1.55M).
  • Recommended offer: $1.41M (9.0% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
  • Cap rate 17.7% vs local median 2.8% in Redlands — 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 75/100 on livability (#118 in CA, #4,193 nationally) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: amenities A+, commute A+, employment A+; Watch: crime C-, health & safety D, cost of living F.
  • Redlands Unified (urban): math 44% / reading 57% proficiency, ranked #390 of 1,400 in CA (top 28%) — acceptable for families but not a draw, mixed tenant base, ~2y average lease.
  • Market conditions: Rents soft (-0.2%/yr); 110 active listings in the ZIP; solid renter incomes; 5,458 units permitted in San Bernardino County in 2024 (1,500 in 5+ unit buildings).
  • At $30,549/mo this rent would consume 362% of the median local household income ($101k/yr) (locally 1532% 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 $11k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $46k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
  • San Bernardino County population projected at +15% by 2050 — modest demand growth; plan on rents tracking national, not racing it.
  • At projected returns (-3.0% appreciation + 0.0% rent growth), your $434k cash investment doubles in ~4 years — after that, you're playing with house money.

Negotiation context

  • It's been on market 101 days — a 9% lower offer ($1.41M) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
  • 2 sale attempts with the ask held roughly flat each time — persistent listings suggest the price (not the market) is what's stuck; bring a comps-based counter.
Recommended offer $1,410,500 (9.0% below list)

Questions for the listing agent

  1. It's been on market 101 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 9% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
  2. Why hasn't it sold? Are there any deal-killer items the seller is aware of (foundation, flood, title, zoning, code violations)?
  3. Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
  4. Schools are B-rated — typically a magnet for longer-tenancy family renters. What's the average tenant stay here, and is there a school-zone premium baked into asking?
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
