Listing remarks MLS

We are pleased to present the opportunity to purchase a rare, value-add offering that is cash flowing at a current 5.24% Cap Rate.   The high cash flow provides a buyer the opportunity to purchase at a 60%+ LTV.   Pine Ave consists of six units that have large floor plans situated on a 6,740 sq ft lot.   Additionally, there is significant upside potential to add an additional two ADU units, and to utilize the two common courtyards for tenant amenities.   1952 Pine also benefits from four single car garages which are a commodity in Long Beach.   Located near Downtown Long Beach, and proximate to the 710 & 405 Freeways, this is a strong rental location that will benefit a first time or seasoned investor. Note - the property consists of large 1bedroom units which operate as 2bedroom units.

What this means for you Summary

Snapshot

  • This is a 2×1bd/1ba + 6×2bd/1ba units multifamily listed at $1.56M.

Deal economics

  • At list price, monthly cash flow is $91 ($1k/yr) — positive. Per door: $11/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 $1.38M (12.1% below list).
  • Recommended offer: $1.38M (12.1% below list) — sets the bar for 1% rule.
  • Cap rate 6.4% vs local median 1.9% in Long Beach — 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 67/100 on livability (#319 in CA) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: amenities A+, commute A+, employment B+; Watch: health & safety C-, crime F, cost of living F.
  • Long Beach Unified (urban): math 34% / reading 50% proficiency, ranked #216 of 517 in CA (top 42%) — families likely to look elsewhere, expect single-tenant / working-renter base with shorter leases.
  • Zoned schools: Robinson Academy (math 21% / reading 33%, grade F, #917 of 1,571 statewide, top 60%, 729 students, 76% FRL); Helen Keller Middle (math 51% / reading 68%, grade B, #61 of 498 statewide, top 12%, 459 students, 31% FRL); Polytechnic High (math 54% / reading 72%, grade B-, #184 of 1,170 statewide, top 16%, 3,952 students, 54% FRL).
  • Market conditions: Rents flat; 48 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 $13,753/mo this rent would consume 208% of the median local household income ($79k/yr) (locally 2135% 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 $47k 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 46 days — a 3% lower offer ($1.52M) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
  • 6 sale attempts since 23y 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.

Risks & watch-outs

  • Watch-outs: built in 1940 — expect roof / HVAC / electrical / plumbing capex.
Recommended offer $1,375,300 (12.1% below list)

Questions for the listing agent

  1. It's been on market 46 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 1940 — when were the roof, HVAC, electrical panel, plumbing, and water heater last replaced?
  5. Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
  6. 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?
  7. The area grade is low — what's the realistic commute time and amenity access for the typical tenant pool here? Any planned neighborhood developments (good or bad) we should know about?
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
