El Dorado Villas presents a rare opportunity to acquire a luxury condominium community reimagined as a high-performing multifamily asset in the coveted Sherman Oaks submarket.
Constructed in 2008 and situated on a beautifully landscaped 0.6-acre parcel at 4510 Murietta Avenue, the 33-unit property offers true condo quality living, with spacious layouts and premium finishes that command top-of-market rents and sustain consistently low vacancy. The unit mix—24 three-bedroom/two-bath, 5 two-bedroom/two-and-a-half-bath, and 4 two-bedroom/two-bath units—caters to affluent families and professionals seeking upscale residences in a walkable neighborhood
with a median local household income exceeding $140,000.
Rents of approximately $4,700 for three-bedroom units and $4,300 for two-bedroom units significantly outperform the carrying costs of ownership in this area, emphasizing a substantial affordability gap that drives long-term rental demand. Priced at $659,091 per unit and $433 per square foot, El Dorado Villas offers immediate value, trading meaningfully below recent comparable condominium sales averaging $866,662 per unit and $542 per square foot. This differential provides investors with inherent equity upside rarely found in newer construction assets. The affordability gap between ownership and rentals is significant thus insuring future rent appreciation for assets like The El Dorado Villas.
The asset is further differentiated by its individual parcel map, which allows for strategic optionality ranging from continued stabilized cash flow operation to future unit-by-unit resale or a full condo exit strategy. Governed under AB 1482 rent increase limits (5% + CPI, max 10%), the property offers predictable income growth alongside path-to-upside through targeted modernization and amenity enhancements. Featuring Tuscan-inspired architecture, underground tandem parking, landscaped BBQ courtyards, and a modern fitness center, El Dorado Villas stands as a trophy-quality offering within a supply-constrained, high-demand Sherman Oaks rental market—delivering core-plus performance with clear value-add potential.
