Rent-control rules apply to occupied residential units, not raw land. What matters here is zoning, density programs like TOC and ED1, and what the dirt can carry.

/// COMMON QUESTIONS · 10209 SAMOA AVE

The short answers.

When did 10209 Samoa Ave last change hands?

The most recent transfer on the roll was recorded June 2016. Not every recorded transfer is a market sale — refinances, trust transfers, and family conveyances all appear in the same field, and those do not reset the assessed value.

What is 10209 Samoa Ave assessed at, and is that what it is worth?

The current assessed value is $347,687 ($347,687 land). Assessed value is not market value. Under Proposition 13 it resets only on a change of ownership and then climbs about 2% a year, so a long-held building is often assessed far below what it would trade for — and this one has held its base year for roughly 17 years.

Would the owner of 10209 Samoa Ave face a big tax bill on a sale?

Possibly. A base year going back roughly 17 years usually means a low tax basis, and a low basis means a large taxable gain on a straight sale — capital gains plus depreciation recapture, with California taxing gains at ordinary income rates. It is also why long-held buildings so often sell through a 1031 exchange instead, or pass through an estate for the step-up in basis.

How do I find out what 10209 Samoa Ave would sell for today?

Public records give you the frame — units, size, age, assessed value, when it last traded — but pricing needs in-place rents, expenses, and the condition of the units, none of which appear in county data. A broker valuation puts closed comps and a rent survey against the actual rent roll. Shaya Lowenstein does that free for LA multifamily owners, typically within 48 hours, with no obligation to list.
