About this home
1019 Lewis Avenue presents the opportunity to acquire a substantially renovated 16-unit multifamily property offering strong in-place cash flow, a stable income profile and additional rental upside in a highly walkable north Downtown Long Beach location. Offered at $3,900,000, the property generates a 7.00% current cap rate, with upside to a 7.59% market cap rate as rents move toward market levels. Ownership has invested approximately $400,000 in capital improvements, significantly reducing near-term capital expenditure requirements for a new investor. Fifteen of the property's 16 units have been fully renovated, while major building improvements include a new roof on one building, a newly sealed roof on the second building, a new 400-amp main electrical panel, upgraded subpanels and majority copper plumbing. The property features a highly desirable unit mix consisting of (14) 2BD/1BA units and (2) 1BD/1BA units. Current rents average $2,168 per unit, compared with projected market rents of ~$2,325, representing approximately 7% overall rental upside. Scheduled rental income has the potential to increase from $416,300 to $446,400 annually as rents are brought toward market levels. The property benefits from a stable income profile, with the majority of residents participating in HACLA or HACLB housing assistance programs. This provides an attractive combination of dependable rental income and continued organic upside as below-market rents are adjusted over time. Two newly constructed ADUs have already been incorporated into the property, increasing the asset's income-producing unit count while demonstrating the property's ability to accommodate additional density. Ownership has identified the potential for additional ADU development, providing a future investor with another avenue for long-term value creation beyond the existing rental upside. At the $3,900,000 offering price, 1019 Lewis generates $269,099 in current NOI, equating to a 7.00% current cap rate and 9.12 GRM. At projected market rents, NOI increases to ~$295,866, supporting a 7.59% market cap rate and 8.52 GRM. The combination of strong day- one yield and ~$27,767 in additional NOI potential provides investors with meaningful current income without relying on an extensive renovation or repositioning program. Located just north of Downtown Long Beach, 1019 Lewis provides convenient access to the city's employment centers, shopping, dining, transit and ocean.
St. Mary, located between Downtown Long Beach and Alamitos Beach, is a historic and walkable Long Beach neighborhood with early-20th-century bungalows and a compact grid of palm-lined streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the 4th Street corridor near Cherry Avenue, where sidewalk patios, indie storefronts, and late-night bites set a steady hum. Architectural details lean Craftsman and Spanish Revival, with small apartment courts tucked behind mature trees. Retro Row’s local institutions—Art Theatre Long Beach, Portfolio Coffeehouse, and The Social List—anchor the area’s daily rhythm. Pocket parks and the nearby beach path shape an outdoors-forward routine. Transit lines along 4th Street and Broadway connect the neighborhood to downtown venues and the shoreline.
