Notes to the Operating Statement
[1] Additional Income: Parking & Pet: $600 per month, or $7,200 per year, made up of $575 of parking (the steady-state monthly collection on the trailing statement) and $25 of pet rent. Ownership's sizing sheet carries eight rented spaces at $12,000 per year, which is treated as upside; late and NSF fees are not carried.
[2] Scheduled Gross Income: Six whole units and eight individually leased rooms at the rents on the 2026-08-27 ownership rent roll, $27,700 per month. The two vacant rooms in unit 6028-2 carry the $1,400 asking rent printed on the roll, which is standard Los Angeles practice. The market column carries ownership's pro forma rents of $2,400 for the lofts, $1,975 for the studio, $2,100 for the one bedroom and $4,200 for the three-bedroom units, with the rooms unchanged.
[3] Vacancy Reserve: 5.0% of scheduled gross rent, matching ownership's own sizing assumption and above the 3.0% LAAA uses on conventional whole-unit buildings, because eight of the fourteen rent lines are rooms.
[4] Real Estate Taxes: Reassessed at the recommended list price of $4,300,000 at the 1.1244% effective rate derived from the subject's own 2025 bill of $30,095 on $2,676,512 of assessed value, tax rate area 0-013, or $48,349 per year. The $8,897 on the trailing statement is a partial-year figure on the construction-period basis.
[5] Insurance: Ownership's booked premium of $10,660, carried as presented. The LAAA underwriting allowance of $200 per unit plus $1.00 per gross SF would be $11,207; a buyer should obtain current quotes.
[6] Utilities - Electric, Water & Sewer: Ownership's operating figure of $7,102, which equals the trailing-twelve electric ($5,684), water ($553) and sewer ($865) as booked. Units are individually metered for electricity on the 600-amp service, so the booked cost is house and common-area usage. The $623 of gas booked is excluded, following ownership's schedule.
[7] Trash Removal: City of Los Angeles sanitation billing as booked, $3,764.
[8] Repairs & Maintenance: $600 per unit per year, or $4,800, for a 2024 building. Ownership booked $7,271 of general maintenance and vacancy cleaning in the first full year, most of it a single October 2025 charge of $4,960.
[9] Landscaping: Gardening at $200 per month as booked.
[10] Replacement Reserves: $300 per unit per year, or $2,400, set at half of the repairs allowance for a 2024 building. Ownership's sizing sheet carries $3,000 and the booked statement carries no reserve line.
[11] Management Fee (4.0% of EGI): Underwritten at 4.0% of effective gross income. Ownership manages in house and books no management cost, so this is an addition to reported cost rather than a restatement of it. Room-by-room leasing is management intensive and a buyer may underwrite a higher rate.

The recommended list price is $4.3M, inside an opinion-of-value range of $4.15M to $4.45M. Current scheduled income of $332,400 less a 5% vacancy reserve plus $7,200 of parking and pet income gives $322,980 of effective gross income; operating expenses of $92,394, including taxes reassessed at the list price, produce net operating income of $230,586, a 5.36% cap rate and a 12.94 gross rent multiplier. At ownership's pro forma rents of $345,600 the net operating income is $242,624 and the cap rate 5.64%. The price is $537,500 per unit and $448 per SF.
Against the evidence, the price is disciplined rather than aggressive. It sits inside the closed per-square-foot range, inside the closed cap-rate range, and at a lower multiplier than every closed sale but one, and it sits below every comparable per unit because the subject's units are smaller. The reasons it is not higher are the same reasons it is defensible: the room leases, the first-year statement and the absence of a closed eight-unit new-construction print in the submarket. A buyer who accepts the room income will pay the top of the range; a buyer who converts it to whole units will pay the bottom.

Disclosures
Scheduled income is the ownership rent roll as of August 27, 2026 with two vacant rooms at their $1,400 asking rent; a third room shows notice for August 31, 2026. Taxes are reassessed at the list price at the subject's own 1.1244% effective rate. Insurance ($10,660), utilities ($7,102 for electric, water and sewer), trash ($3,764), gardening ($2,400) are ownership's operating figures, drawn from its accrual statement for September 2025 through August 2026 and its own sizing schedule. Repairs are carried at $600 per unit per year ($4,800) against $7,271 booked in the first year, and reserves at half of repairs ($2,400). A 4.0% management fee is added; ownership books no management cost. Debt figures are illustrative: a new loan sized to a 1.25 debt coverage ratio on current income, 58% loan to value at 6.25% on a 30-year amortization, not a lender quote.
The trailing twelve months are the building's lease-up year: base rent collected was $298,968 with $18,290 of concessions against $332,400 now scheduled. Additional income is carried as Parking & Pet at $600 per month ($7,200: $575 of parking and $25 of pet rent); ownership's sizing sheet carries $12,000 of parking from eight rented spaces, which is treated as upside, and late and NSF fees are not carried. Unit square footages are ownership's figures and are approximate. Comparable cap rates and multipliers are as published by the listing brokerages and were not independently audited.
