/// COMMON QUESTIONS · 3725 CHESAPEAKE AVE

The short answers.

Is 3725 Chesapeake Ave rent controlled?

These records carry no unit count 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.

When was 3725 Chesapeake Ave built?

The assessor roll gives a build year of 1944, which puts it in the stock old enough for the LA Rent Stabilization Ordinance to reach it, where the building sits inside City of Los Angeles limits. Age drives more than character here. It sets rent-cap exposure, seismic retrofit obligations, and what a lender will underwrite.

When did 3725 Chesapeake Ave last sell, and for how much?

The last recorded transfer was December 2022, at an estimated $5,000,000. 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 3725 Chesapeake Ave assessed at, and is that what it is worth?

The current assessed value is $5,202,000 ($4,161,600 land, $1,040,400 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?

3725 Chesapeake 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 3725 Chesapeake 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.
