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.

/// COMMON QUESTIONS · 12408 LAKEWOOD BLVD

The short answers.

When did 12408 Lakewood Blvd last change hands?

The most recent transfer on the roll was recorded October 2004. 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.

Would the owner of 12408 Lakewood Blvd face a big tax bill on a sale?

Possibly. A base year going back roughly 22 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 12408 Lakewood Blvd would sell for today?

Public records give you the frame — units, size, age, assessed value, 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.
