Huge 650k Price Reduction! Once in a lifetime 100% Renovated 10-unit Master-leased opportunity and cash flowing at an impressive 7% Cap Rate from Day 1! The offering provides investors with a turnkey opportunity to purchase a premium asset where every single unit was vacated, completely renovated and leased at market rent. The building was entirely stripped to the studs and thoroughly renovated with permits featuring a new roof, electrical system, plumbing, HVAC, water heaters, and windows. Other upgrades include new cabinets, modern countertops, new flooring, recessed lighting, updated bathrooms with new vanities and sleek bathtubs, and stainless-steel appliances. The offering brings a diverse unit mix consisting of 5 (1bed/1bath) units and 5 (2bed/1bath) units including 3 brand-new ADUs. The property is separately metered for gas and electrical utilities and each unit has its own individual water heater to further reduce operating costs. Located in prime North Long Beach just minutes from the beach, offering investors the opportunity to acquire a low-maintenance asset in a coastal rental market without premium coastal pricing! Majority of the units are master-leased by a single organization providing guaranteed cash flow and minimal vacancies. (Similar to a hassle-free NNN deal with stable income and more limited landlord responsibilities with ease of management and rent collection).

What this means for you Summary

Snapshot

  • This is a 10 × 15-bed/10.0-bath units multifamily listed at $3.35M.

Deal economics

  • At list price, monthly cash flow is $1k ($17k/yr) — positive. Per door: $138/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 $2.81M (16.2% below list).
  • Recommended offer: $2.81M (16.2% below list) — sets the bar for 1% rule.
  • Cap rate 6.8% 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: Addams Elementary (math 19%, 775 students, 73% FRL); Lindsey Academy (math 16% / reading 28%, grade F, #388 of 498 statewide, top 80%, 725 students, 70% FRL); Jordan High (math 12% / reading 35%, grade F, #935 of 1,170 statewide, top 80%, 2,241 students, 66% FRL).
  • Zoned-school proficiency averages 23% at this address vs 42% district-wide (-19 pts) — the specific schools serving this property underperform the Long Beach Unified average; the district grade overstates school quality for this exact location.
  • Market conditions: Rents rising (+1.9%/yr); 100 active listings in the ZIP; 19,697 units permitted in Los Angeles County in 2024 (9,426 in 5+ unit buildings).
  • At $28,070/mo this rent would consume 459% of the median local household income ($73k/yr) (locally 4834% 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 $23k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $100k 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 75 days — a 6% lower offer ($3.15M) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
  • 8 sale attempts since 15y ago; this cycle's ask has dropped $200k (6%) from the opening price — seller is motivated, your offer sets the floor, not the list.
  • Current owner paid $710k; list at $3.35M implies a 372% gain — meaningful room to come down on a strong offer.
Recommended offer $2,807,000 (16.2% below list)

Questions for the listing agent

  1. It's been on market 75 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 16% 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 1964 — 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. 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?
  8. 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?
  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.
