## Description

### Agent Description
Rare opportunity to acquire the Wright Avenue Apartments, a 44-unit (43 + 1 non-conforming 2+2) gated multifamily community in Pasadena's desirable Olive Heights / North Central neighborhood. Built in 1971 on an expansive 35,252 SF lot, the property spans approximately 22,784 SF with a functional mix of 33 one-bedroom units, 10 studios, and one non-conforming two-bedroom/two-bath. Residents enjoy controlled-access entry, gated covered parking, on-site laundry, bicycle storage, and a tranquil courtyard featuring a koi pond and tree-shaded seating, while select units feature updated kitchens and interiors. The offering presents extraordinary value-add potential: current rents average $1,486/unit against $2,215 at market a massive 69% upside as units turn to market rents plus an additional path to 59% upside through possible ADU development of the rear parking area into 8 two-bedroom ADUs (buyer to verify). At $220,000 per unit and $425/SF, the property trades at a 5.61% current cap rate with market fundamentals supporting 9.47%. The location is exceptional: Very Walkable (Walk Score 86), a 15-minute walk to the Metro A Line Lake Station, and minutes to Old Pasadena's dining and retail, the Rose Bowl, and South Lake Avenue. Anchored by world-class employers including Caltech, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Huntington Hospital, and Kaiser Permanente in a zip code with a $105,958 median household income and $1.6M median home price 819 Wright Avenue offers investors scale, stable in-place income, and one of the deepest rent-growth stories in the Pasadena submarket.
