LIKELY UNDER AB 1482 STATE CAP

Built 1999, 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 · 4306 LIMA ST

The short answers.

Is 4306 Lima St rent controlled?

Built 1999, 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 4306 Lima St have?

County records list 2 units at 4306 Lima St, classified as duplex across 2,532 square feet of building area, averaging about 1,266 square feet per unit. Unit counts on the roll can lag permitted conversions and unpermitted additions in both directions.

When was 4306 Lima St built?

The assessor roll gives a build year of 1999, 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 4306 Lima St last change hands?

The most recent transfer on the roll was recorded October 2005. 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 4306 Lima St assessed at, and is that what it is worth?

The current assessed value is $491,678 ($222,181 land, $269,497 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, and this one has held its base year for roughly 20 years.

Would the owner of 4306 Lima St face a big tax bill on a sale?

Possibly. A base year going back roughly 20 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 4306 Lima St 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.
