245 E. Artesia Boulevard presents the opportunity to acquire a well-maintained 5-unit multifamily asset with significant upside through future ADU development in a centrally located Long Beach neighborhood with convenient regional access. The property combines spacious floorplans, strong existing cash flow, and clear value-add potential, creating a compelling opportunity for both investors and potential owner/users.
Desirable Unit Mix and Sizable Floorplans
The property offers an attractive unit mix including (1) 3BD/2BA unit and (4) 2BD/2BA units, appealing to a broad tenant base seeking larger residential floorplans rarely found in today’s multifamily inventory. Units are bright and spacious, averaging approximately 1,287 square feet, providing a more residential living experience compared to typical apartment product in the area. The 3BD/2BA unit features dramatic high beam ceilings and an in-unit washer and dryer, further enhancing rental appeal and potential owner/user functionality.
Capital Improvements & Ancillary Income
The property has undergone extensive interior improvements, including updated flooring and paint throughout all units. Additional capital improvements include a newer roof approximately three years old and partially updated electrical systems, helping reduce near-term capital expenditure requirements and supporting operational stability. Ownership also benefits from ancillary laundry income through owned on-site machines, while seven (7) garages provide additional parking income and further enhance tenant convenience and property functionality.
Approved ADU Plans - Rental Upside Potential of ±39%
A key component of the investment opportunity is the property’s future ADU development potential. Plans have been approved for the addition of two new 2BD/1.5BA ADU units, providing investors with a clear path to materially increase future income by approximately $60,000 annually. The ability to add density while leveraging the property’s existing infrastructure creates a rare opportunity to substantially increase long-term cash flow and overall asset value.
