Executive Summary

Royal Viking Apartments is a 62-unit mixed-use Westlake asset — 59 gut-renovated studios plus 3 commercial bays — offered at $12,500,000, a 7.41% in-place cap on $926,613 of net operating income, approximately 93.5% leased.
THREE PATHS TO VALUE: The asset pays as apartments today, carries a legitimate and active hotel license, and sits on a materially underbuilt 0.92-acre transit parcel — three distinct, non-exclusive ways to create value. It is offered and financed on its in-place residential rent roll; hotel and development scenarios are optionality on top.
TURN-KEY 2024 GUT RENOVATION: 21 new units created; all 59 residential units LAHD-registered and legal.
ACTIVE HOTEL LICENSE + RENT FLEXIBILITY: Legitimate, active hotel license with by-right transient hotel use. The property is NOT subject to the LA Residential Hotel Ordinance; rent stabilization applies only to stays beyond 30 days, as with any pre-1978 Los Angeles building. Seven non-RSO units.
MAJOR DEVELOPMENT UPSIDE: The R4-1 / C2-1 parcel carries an additional 66 dwelling units AND 173 guestrooms by-right (+58,885 SF) beyond what exists today, with required parking already zeroed via AB 2097 and up to 137 more units available via TOC Tier 3. No maximum height in the R4 zone.
DIVERSIFIED MIXED-USE INCOME: 59 studios plus 3 commercial bays anchored by a 10-year restaurant lease, with 47 parking spaces, a pool and a roof deck.
WESTLAKE LOCATION: 0.47 miles to the MacArthur Park Metro B/D station, minutes west of Downtown Los Angeles.
Offered individually or as part of a 7-asset Central-LA portfolio. Full OM, proforma, T-12 and rent roll available. Full co-broke offered.
