/// COMMON QUESTIONS · 1509 S VAN NESS AVE

The short answers.

Is 1509 S Van Ness Ave rent controlled?

These records carry no year built for this parcel, and coverage turns on exactly those facts: the Rent Stabilization Ordinance reaches City of Los Angeles buildings of two or more units with a certificate of occupancy issued on or before 1 October 1978. Rather than guess, confirm the address with LAHD. Confirm the address with the LA Housing Department or in ZIMAS before you rely on any assumption for pricing or notices.

How many units does 1509 S Van Ness Ave have?

County records list 11 units at 1509 S Van Ness Ave, classified as 5+ units across 6,796 square feet of building area, averaging about 618 square feet per unit. Unit counts on the roll can lag permitted conversions and unpermitted additions in both directions.

When did 1509 S Van Ness Ave last sell, and for how much?

The last recorded transfer was April 2024, at an estimated $2,640,000, about $240,000 per unit. That price is estimated from the Proposition 13 reassessment recorded at sale, not a verified closing price, so treat it as a close approximation rather than a confirmed figure.

What is 1509 S Van Ness Ave assessed at, and is that what it is worth?

The current assessed value is $2,746,656 ($1,097,622 land, $1,649,034 improvements). 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.

What is the Mid-City apartment market doing?

1509 S Van Ness Ave sits in Mid-City, in Los Angeles. Recorded sale counts, median price per unit, median price per square foot, and the share of rent-control-era stock for the submarket are published and updated as the county roll refreshes. See the Mid-City market page for the current figures rather than a number quoted here.

How do I find out what 1509 S Van Ness Ave would sell for today?

Public records give you the frame, units, size, age, assessed value, and 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.
