PRICE ESTIMATED FROM ASSESSOR REASSESSMENT AT SALE, NOT A VERIFIED CLOSING PRICE.
Vacant / unimproved land.
Rent-control rules apply to occupied residential units, not raw land. What matters here is zoning, density programs like TOC and ED1, and what the dirt can carry.

The short answers.
When did 437 E 5th St last sell, and for how much?
The last recorded transfer was March 2024, at an estimated $1,800,000. 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 437 E 5th St assessed at, and is that what it is worth?
The current assessed value is $1,836,000 ($1,836,000 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.
What is the Long Beach apartment market doing?
437 E 5th St sits in Long Beach, 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 Long Beach market page for the current figures rather than a number quoted here.
How do I find out what 437 E 5th 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.
Leave an email and I'll come back with what it is worth and whether the owner is likely to trade. It does not have to be for sale, and it does not have to be my listing.
