A 24-unit mid-size multifamily property at 532 S Gramercy Pl in Koreatown, sold June 2018 for $5,600,000 — approximately $233,333 per unit.
2018 LA multifamily was at or near cyclical peak pricing. Institutional capital remained active across asset classes. Transaction volume was high.
Koreatown is one of the highest-density multifamily submarkets in LA, overwhelmingly pre-1978 and subject to LA City RSO. Buyer pool includes institutional value-add, 1031 exchangers, and multi-generational family offices.
Mid-size multifamily in this unit range attracts both private investors and smaller institutional buyers, particularly on value-add theses.
Set against the rest of the Koreatown record, this is the 7th largest of the 21 Koreatown apartment buildings Michael Sterman has closed.
At $233,333 a unit it sits 47% above the Koreatown median of $158,958. Per-unit price tracks condition and the in-place rent roll as much as location, so the gap is a starting question rather than a verdict.
Other Koreatown closings the same year: 350 S Reno St (36 units, $15,215,000), 514 S Gramercy Pl (24 units, $6,100,000), 934 Arapahoe St (13 units, $2,175,000).
This transaction is part of the Sterman Multifamily Group closed archive — over fourteen years at Marcus & Millichap.
