Mid-Renovation Fourplex with Premium Finish Package

The LAAA Team is proud to present 1206 N Edgemont St, a 4-unit multifamily building in East Hollywood being offered as an REO disposition by Roc360. The property is mid-renovation at the drywall stage, with all rough mechanical, electrical, and plumbing work substantially complete. The original renovation plan converts all four units from 1BR/1BA to open-concept 2BR/1BA layouts at approximately 1,052 SF each, with in-unit washer/dryer hookups, mini split HVAC, quartz kitchens, and modern finishes throughout.

A buyer acquires approximately $250,000 of completed construction value embedded in the purchase price, including approved electrical panels, roughed-in plumbing and HVAC, insulation, framing for new bedrooms, and drywall. The property is delivered 100% vacant with no tenant complications, in an Opportunity Zone with TOC Tier 3 density bonus potential, near the Vermont/Western Metro station.

At the recommended list price of $1,395,000, a buyer finishing the renovation at $250K-$400K achieves a stabilized exit value of approximately $2.0M ($509K/unit) based on projected rents of $3,100/month per unit and a 5.00% cap rate. The 4-unit residential format qualifies for conventional financing upon stabilization, and the Opportunity Zone designation provides additional tax benefits for qualifying investors.

Residual Value Method — Three Renovation Cost Scenarios

The primary pricing methodology is the Residual Value / Development Spread Analysis, which answers: what can a buyer pay today and still achieve their required return? This method is appropriate because the property generates no current income and requires significant capital investment to stabilize.

Formula: Max Purchase Price = (Exit Value / (1 + Required Spread)) − Renovation − Holding Costs − Closing Costs

Exit Value: $2,035,000 | Buyer's Required Spread: 20% | All-In Cost Ceiling: $1,695,833

Renovation Cost $250,000 $300,000 $400,000
Exit Value $2,035,000 $2,035,000 $2,035,000

Beyond the Base Case

Opportunity Zone

Qualifying investors can defer and reduce capital gains taxes by investing in the property. If held for 10+ years, all appreciation on the OZ investment is tax-free. This effectively increases purchasing power and improves returns for the right buyer profile.

TOC Tier 3 Density Bonus

The R3-1XL zoning with TOC Tier 3 allows up to 70% density increase with an affordable housing set-aside. Combined with AB 2334 and AB 2097 (which reduce parking requirements), a future buyer could explore significant densification of the 6,250 SF lot.

ADU Potential

Under SB 1211, the property may qualify for up to 4 detached ADUs by right, subject to lot coverage and setback requirements. This creates long-term development optionality beyond the existing 4 units.

Rent Growth

East Hollywood continues to see institutional investment and neighborhood improvement, driven by Metro rail access and proximity to Silver Lake, Los Feliz, and Hollywood. New construction in the same zip code (90029) is achieving $4,500-$4,900/mo for 4BR units and $5,000-$6,750/mo for luxury product. The subject's stabilized rents of $3,100/mo leave room for organic growth.

Expected buyer profile: Local developer or value-add investor with GC relationships, paying cash or with bridge/hard money financing. Not a 1031 exchange buyer (no current income). The deep value-add buyer pool in East Hollywood will compete aggressively for a permitted, mid-construction fourplex with premium amenities already roughed in.

Subject to interior inspection. Renovation cost estimates are based on LADBS permit and inspection analysis and exterior observation. A site visit with a licensed general contractor is recommended to confirm renovation scope and cost prior to listing. All projections are estimates; actual results may vary.
