Listing remarks MLS

12070 Woodbridge St. presents investors with the opportunity to acquire a 12-unit apartment building located in the core of Studio City, one of Los Angeles' most consistently high-demand rental submarkets. Properties in this location are rarely available, especially those with over 30% renovated units and still significant upside in the other units. Strategically positioned just north of Ventura Boulevard, the property benefits from immediate proximity to Studio City's premier dining, retail, and lifestyle amenities. The area draws a stable, high-quality tenant base of entertainment professionals, young creatives, executives, and longterm residents seeking the neighborhood's blend of walkability, safety, and convenience. Studio City consistently ranks among the highest-earning submarkets in the Valley, supporting premium rents and reduced turnover. The asset also offers rapid access to the 101 Freeway, connecting tenants to major employment hubs including Hollywood, Burbank, Universal City, and the broader San Fernando Valley within minutes. This connectivity continues to support low vacancy rates and strong long-term rent growth in the submarket. 12070 Woodbridge St. represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a well-located, professionally maintained multifamily asset with measurable upside in one of Los Angeles' most resilient and supply-constrained rental markets. Its Studio City address, tenant-demand fundamentals, and clear value-add potential make it ideal for investors seeking both stability and growth

What this means for you Summary

Snapshot

  • This is a 3×2bd/1.5ba + 2×2bd/1.75ba + 7×1bd/1ba units multifamily listed at $3.50M.

Deal economics

  • At list price, monthly cash flow is $4k ($46k/yr) — positive. Per door: $319/mo.
  • The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
  • To meet the 1% rule (rent ≥ 1% of price), the offer needs to be $3.38M (3.6% below list).
  • Recommended offer: $3.08M (12.0% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
  • Cap rate 7.6% vs local median 2.1% in Los Angeles — 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 68/100 on livability (#273 in CA) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: amenities A+, commute A+, employment B; Watch: health & safety C-, schools D+, crime F.
  • Los Angeles Unified (urban): math 29% / reading 54% proficiency, ranked #223 of 517 in CA (top 43%) — families likely to look elsewhere, expect single-tenant / working-renter base with shorter leases; 67% free/reduced lunch — lower-income household profile, screen leases tightly.
  • Market conditions: Rents soft (-1.1%/yr); 174 active listings in the ZIP; high-income renter base; 19,697 units permitted in Los Angeles County in 2024 (9,426 in 5+ unit buildings).
  • At $33,756/mo this rent would consume 286% of the median local household income ($142k/yr) (locally 1988% 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 $24k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $105k 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 144 days — a 12% lower offer ($3.08M) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
  • 4 sale attempts since 3y ago 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.
  • Current owner paid $2.83M; 24% above their basis — modest negotiation headroom, anchor on the comps not their cost.

Risks & watch-outs

  • Climate carrying-cost: major flood risk; extreme-heat days projected 8→23/yr by 2055 (HVAC capex compounding) — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.
Recommended offer $3,080,000 (12.0% below list)

Questions for the listing agent

  1. It's been on market 144 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 12% 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 1960 — 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 F 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.
