Marketing description
834 Laguna Avenue is a 1925 character fourplex — two detached duplexes on a single 4,034 SF lot in Echo Park — offering an investor immediate lease-up upside alongside stable in-place cash flow.
Two of four units deliver vacant at close of escrow. The incoming owner sets market rents, selects tenants, and achieves full stabilization within a single lease cycle. No displacement. No friction. No waiting. Pro forma NOI stabilizes at $74,422, reflecting a 5.75% cap rate and GRM of 11.74 at the ask.
In-place, the property generates $67,211 NOI at a 5.19% cap — anchored by two seasoned tenants, one month-to-month and one leased through July 2026. A coin-operated laundry adds $1,080 in annual supplemental income.
The property sits within the Silver Lake–Echo Park HPOZ — a Historic Preservation Overlay Zone that limits overdevelopment and protects the architectural character driving premium rents in this submarket. The renter profile this corridor attracts — urban, professionally employed, design-conscious — is among the most stable in Los Angeles.
Unit mix: 2 studios (330 SF) and 2 one-bedrooms (430 SF). No on-site parking; Walk Score 90+ and immediate proximity to the Sunset Blvd retail corridor, Echo Park Lake, and Metro lines address this directly.
Ideal for: 1031 exchange buyers, value-add operators, local syndicators, and owner-users seeking an entry point into Echo Park. OM and rent roll available upon request. Tours available immediately.
