LIKELY UNDER AB 1482 STATE CAP

Built 1987, inside the City of Los Angeles. Construction after 1 October 1978 is outside the RSO, so the statewide cap applies instead: 5% plus regional CPI, never more than 10% in a year.

/// COMMON QUESTIONS · 1616 S BENTLEY AVE

The short answers.

Is 1616 S Bentley Ave rent controlled?

Built 1987, inside the City of Los Angeles. Construction after 1 October 1978 is outside the RSO, so the statewide cap applies instead: 5% plus regional CPI, never more than 10% in a year. This is an inference from public assessor records, not a determination. Confirm the certificate of occupancy date with the LA Housing Department or ZIMAS before you rely on it for pricing or notices.

How many units does 1616 S Bentley Ave have?

County records list 17 units at 1616 S Bentley Ave, classified as triplex across 26,990 square feet of building area, averaging about 1,588 square feet per unit. Unit counts on the roll can lag permitted conversions and unpermitted additions in both directions.

When was 1616 S Bentley Ave built?

The assessor roll gives a build year of 1987, which is after the 1 October 1978 RSO cutoff. The ordinance turns on the certificate of occupancy rather than the roll's build year, so a building finished either side of that date is worth confirming with LAHD. Age drives more than character here. It sets rent-cap exposure, seismic retrofit obligations, and what a lender will underwrite.

When did 1616 S Bentley Ave last sell, and for how much?

The last recorded transfer was June 2022, at an estimated $11,900,000, about $700,000 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 1616 S Bentley Ave assessed at, and is that what it is worth?

The current assessed value is $12,628,375 ($8,489,664 land, $4,138,711 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.

How do I find out what 1616 S Bentley 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.
