We are pleased to present 5501–5505 Alhambra Avenue, a five-unit mixed-use investment property for sale in El Sereno, Los Angeles. The property is 100 percent occupied and offers a strong 7.25 percent cap rate, above the submarket average. The asset also provides additional value-add upside through rent growth, operational efficiencies, and future development potential. Located on two adjacent parcels on a prominent corner lot, the property includes four apartment units and one retail or office space, along with a bonus non-conforming studio unit. The buildings total approximately 3,240 square feet on a 7,905 square foot lot, positioned in one of Northeast Los Angeles’ most active rental and investment submarkets.
The unit mix includes two three-bedroom units, one two-bedroom unit, one standalone one-bedroom house, and a ground-floor retail or office suite. A studio-sized bonus unit of approximately 300 square feet provides additional income potential. All units are individually metered. The office space was fully renovated and leased earlier this year at market rate rents, demonstrating strong tenant demand and achievable rental levels in the El Sereno mixed-use investment market.
The site features a large paved and gated parking area accommodating approximately ten vehicles with double egress. The corner configuration provides excellent visibility and signage potential along Alhambra Avenue, a major Northeast Los Angeles commercial corridor. The main power panel has been upgraded, representing a major capital improvement. Mixed-use C2 zoning supports retail, multifamily, and redevelopment opportunities, making this an attractive value-add investment property in Los Angeles.
