Listing remarks MLS
801-807 Waterloo Street is a fully entitled affordable housing development site in the heart of Echo Park. Two adjacent parcels totaling 12,613 square feet. Approved entitlements for 131 income-restricted units and letter of Compliance already in hand. The plan calls for a seven-story mid-rise using Type III over Type I construction. At roughly 65,000 buildable square feet, the unit mix breaks down to 84 singles and 47 one-bedrooms. A rooftop deck, multiple open recreation areas, and space for supportive services are built into the design. The 50% design development plan package is included, and the Welfare Tax Exemption is already BOE-approved. Both are significant time and cost advantages for a buyer ready to move. On pricing, $23,091 per buildable unit is the number that stops people. A mission-driven developer or nonprofit can acquire a fully entitled 131-unit affordable project in one of the most transit-connected neighborhoods in LA for a fraction of what it costs to assemble and entitle from scratch. The location supports it. Walk Score of 89. Six-minute walk to Sunset Boulevard. 1.3 miles to the Metro B Line. 2.5 miles to Downtown LA. The site sits within the Silver Lake-Echo Park-Elysian Valley Community Plan area, surrounded by the kind of neighborhood density (restaurants, transit, employment) that drives lease-up velocity for affordable housing. The rental demand picture in Echo Park is not speculative. New developments are moving in the corridor right now: 176 units at 2225 W Sunset, 74 units at 3004 W Sunset, 90 units at 355 Glendale. Supply is coming but it is not catching up. Income-restricted product at this location will not sit.

What this means for you Summary
Snapshot
- This is a 2-bed/2.0-bath multifamily listed at $3.02M.
Deal economics
- At list price, monthly cash flow is $256k ($3.07M/yr) — positive.
- The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
- Meets the 1% rule at list price ($347k rent vs $3.02M).
- Recommended offer: $2.75M (9.0% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
- Cap rate 107.9% 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 (-0.0%/yr); 179 active listings in the ZIP; 40 comparable units currently listed for rent nearby; rentals at typical pace (median 22d on market — plan ~3-4 weeks tenant-placement turnaround); solid renter incomes; 19,697 units permitted in Los Angeles County in 2024 (9,426 in 5+ unit buildings).
- At $347,333/mo this rent would consume 4772% of the median local household income ($87k/yr) (locally 4974% 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 $21k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $91k 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.
- At projected returns (-3.0% appreciation + 0.0% rent growth), your $847k cash investment doubles in ~1 year — after that, you're playing with house money.
Negotiation context
- It's been on market 91 days — a 9% lower offer ($2.75M) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
- 3 sale attempts since 3y ago; this cycle's ask has dropped $270k (8%) from the opening price — seller is motivated, your offer sets the floor, not the list.
- Current owner paid $2k; list at $3.02M implies a 120900% gain — meaningful room to come down on a strong offer.
Risks & watch-outs
- Watch-outs: built in 1912 — expect roof / HVAC / electrical / plumbing capex.
- Climate carrying-cost: extreme-heat days projected 7→21/yr by 2055 (HVAC capex compounding) — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.
Questions for the listing agent
- It's been on market 91 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 9% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
- Built in 1912 — when were the roof, HVAC, electrical panel, plumbing, and water heater last replaced?
- Why hasn't it sold? Are there any deal-killer items the seller is aware of (foundation, flood, title, zoning, code violations)?
- Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
- 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?
- 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?
- 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?
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

801-807 Waterloo Street is a fully entitled affordable housing development site in the heart of Echo Park. Two adjacent parcels totaling 12,613 square feet. Approved entitlements for 131 income-restricted units and letter of Compliance already in hand. The plan calls for a seven-story mid-rise using Type III over Type I construction. At roughly 65,000 buildable square feet, the unit mix breaks down to 84 singles and 47 one-bedrooms. A rooftop deck, multiple open recreation areas, and space for supportive services are built into the design. The 50% design development plan package is included, and the Welfare Tax Exemption is already BOE-approved. Both are significant time and cost advantages for a buyer ready to move. On pricing, $23,091 per buildable unit is the number that stops people. A mission-driven developer or nonprofit can acquire a fully entitled 131-unit affordable project in one of the most transit-connected neighborhoods in LA for a fraction of what it costs to assemble and entitle from scratch. The location supports it. Walk Score of 89. Six-minute walk to Sunset Boulevard. 1.3 miles to the Metro B Line. 2.5 miles to Downtown LA. The site sits within the Silver Lake-Echo Park-Elysian Valley Community Plan area, surrounded by the kind of neighborhood density (restaurants, transit, employment) that drives lease-up velocity for affordable housing. The rental demand picture in Echo Park is not speculative. New developments are moving in the corridor right now: 176 units at 2225 W Sunset, 74 units at 3004 W Sunset, 90 units at 355 Glendale. Supply is coming but it is not catching up. Income-restricted product at this location will not sit.

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.
