Featuring a unit mix of all three-bedroom units, the property offers a new owner substantial rent upside. The current rents are approximately 47% below market rates, allowing an investor to capitalize on continued income growth for the foreseeable future. There is an existing loan at a 3.97% fixed interest rate that may be assumed. Situated near the intersection of Magnolia Boulevard and Woodman Avenue, the property is blocks from the Westfield Fashion Square and Notre Dame High School. The prestigious Ventura Boulevard, featuring fine dining and high-end shopping, is just one mile south of the property. Half of the apartments have already undergone extensive interior remodeling, with the installation of new wood flooring, quartz countertops, recessed lighting, stainless steel appliances, upgraded bathrooms, and new ceiling fans with remote controls. The property has also been updated with nearly full copper plumbing, several new electric subpanels, all vinyl windows, new exterior paint, new signage, and new lighting. The high barriers to homeownership in Sherman Oaks have led to increased rental demand, as the median three-bedroom home price over the past year has been $1,500,000. Monthly mortgage payments on the median three-bedroom home in Sherman Oaks would be approximately $7,334, which is nearly 2.5 times the monthly market rent for three-bedroom apartments at 5117 Woodman Avenue. This chasm between the cost to rent and the cost of local homeownership -- further widened by additional taxes, insurance, and a prohibitive $300,000 required down payment -- forces more residents into rental housing and increases demand for three-bedroom apartments.
