The LAAA Team is proud to announce the successful closing of 4123 Ocean View Blvd, a 6-unit apartment building in Montrose, which sold for $1,685,000.

The seller had owned this property for nearly 30 years. The original plan was to pass it down to his kids. Then LA County rolled out the Rent Stabilization and Tenant Protections Ordinance, expanding rent control into unincorporated areas like Montrose for the first time. Rent growth became capped. Expenses kept rising. Two of the six units were vacant. The building, constructed in 1948, was fully depreciated with zero tax shelter remaining. The math no longer worked the way it once did.

He decided it was time to move on, but only with someone he trusted to handle it the right way.

We were brought in through a referral from a long-term client. This was someone who had heard us say more than once that it was not the right time to sell. No listing. No commission. Just honest advice. That kind of track record is what led to the introduction.
