Description

Habitat Apartments is a 19-unit apartment building located at 514 S. Mariposa Ave in the highly desirable Koreatown neighborhood of Los Angeles. Built in 1960, the property offers renters a high demand unit mix of 2 studios and 17 one-bedroom units across +/- 12,294 square feet of improvements on +/- 11,250 square feet of land. The thoughtfully maintained property features 12 extensively renovated units featuring new hardwood floors, kitchen cabinets, countertops, stainless steel appliances, designer tiles, fixtures, and lighting. The bathrooms have been updated with modern vanities and tile, bathtubs, and hardware. In addition, the units have new vinyl windows and either wall or split system air-conditioning units. New ownership can continue to capture an additional +/- 26% upside in rents through comprehensive renovations of the remaining unit interiors. The charming Mid-Century design, location, and resort-style feel, are major draws for tenants at the Habitat Apartments. Additional drivers leading to the historically high rents being achieved at Habitat include the elevated level of renovations and designer touches. Tenants have proven they are willing to pay more for a premium product which exceeds the level of detail found at competing properties. The building has 19 tuck-under parking spaces and one laundry room. Utilities are separately metered for electricity and gas, and there is one central water heater. Located in the heart of the Koreatown neighborhood, just east of Normandie Ave, and north of Wilshire Blvd, Habitat Apartments offers tenants access to major employment centers and a broad range of entertainment and recreation opportunities, all within a short walk. The Wilshire/Normandie Purple Line is a few-minute walk from Habitat.

    "It’s centrally located and close to all areas of LA. Rents are still relatively low. Parking is absolutely awful. People are not neighborly and save street spaces daily when they have ample parking spaces in their lots. There’s very little neighborhood camaraderie. Bikes stolen frequently. Packages stolen so frequently it’s better to ship to an Amazon locker. My car has been broken into 3 times in 7 years. The only reason i stay is rent is so cheap for a huge space and it’s close to everything. "

    "Gentrification and in-fill development has made this the fastest growing and most dense part of LA. Plethora of dining options and pubs/bars/clubs. More singles/couple oriented. Plans are being implemented to retain the Korean-American character. Some beautiful examples of architecture and stately buildings mixed in with modern and hodgepodge buildings. Closest thing to a walkable part of town with access to public transport aside from DTLA. Major homeless population is a big deterrent. "
