/// COMMON QUESTIONS · 8730 BELFORD AVE

The short answers.

Is 8730 Belford Ave rent controlled?

Built 1949 in the City of Los Angeles with 97 units — pre-October 1978 multifamily inside city limits is generally under the Rent Stabilization Ordinance, capping annual increases and restricting evictions. 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 8730 Belford Ave have?

County records list 97 units at 8730 Belford Ave, classified as 5+ units across 106,165 square feet of building area, averaging about 1,094 square feet per unit. Unit counts on the roll can lag permitted conversions and unpermitted additions in both directions.

When was 8730 Belford Ave built?

The assessor roll gives a build year of 1949, which puts it in the pre-1979 stock that the LA Rent Stabilization Ordinance generally covers inside city limits. Age drives more than character here: it sets rent-cap exposure, seismic retrofit obligations, and what a lender will underwrite.

When did 8730 Belford Ave last sell, and for how much?

The last recorded transfer was July 2024, at an estimated $39,900,000 — about $411,340 per unit. 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 8730 Belford Ave assessed at, and is that what it is worth?

The current assessed value is $39,900,000 ($17,000,000 land, $22,900,000 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.

How do I find out what 8730 Belford Ave 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.
