PROP 13 ASSESSED VALUES, USUALLY WELL BELOW MARKET ON LONG-HELD BUILDINGS.
No market sale detected on this parcel since 2021. The last recorded transfer may have been a refinance, trust move, or family transfer that didn't reset the Prop 13 base.
RENT CONTROL STATUS NOT DETERMINED
These records carry no unit count and 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.

The short answers.
Is 1639 S Barrington Ave rent controlled?
These records carry no unit count and 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.
What is 1639 S Barrington Ave assessed at, and is that what it is worth?
The current assessed value is $113,482 ($113,482 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 51 years.
Would the owner of 1639 S Barrington Ave face a big tax bill on a sale?
Possibly. A base year going back roughly 51 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 1639 S Barrington 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.
