25109 Ebony Ln Lomita Multifamily Investment
Neighborhood occupancy is above the metro median with dense daily-needs amenities that support renter demand, according to WDSuite’s CRE market data. This positioning suggests steadier leasing for investors evaluating Lomita within the Greater Los Angeles context.
Rated A- and ranked 247 out of 1,441 Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale neighborhoods, this Urban Core location sits in the top quartile among metro peers, indicating competitive fundamentals for multifamily. Neighborhood occupancy is strong and above the metro median, supporting income stability at the asset level (neighborhood occupancy, not property-specific).
The renter-occupied share of housing units is high for the area, signaling a deep tenant base and reinforcing demand for professionally managed apartments. The property’s 1986 vintage is newer than the neighborhood’s mid-century average, which often enhances competitive positioning versus older stock while still warranting planning for system modernization or cosmetic upgrades common to assets of this era.
Within a 3-mile radius, households have edged higher even as population was roughly flat to slightly lower over the past five years, pointing to smaller household sizes and a broadening renter pool. Median incomes have trended upward and forecast rents are expected to rise further, which can support rent growth and occupancy stability when paired with attentive lease management. Elevated ownership costs (home values rank in the 96th percentile nationally and value-to-income is top percentile) make this a high-cost ownership market, which generally sustains reliance on multifamily housing and can aid tenant retention.
Local amenity density is a clear strength: restaurants, cafes, grocery, and pharmacy counts are all near the top of national percentiles, enhancing day-to-day convenience and leasing appeal. Park acreage is limited within the immediate neighborhood, and average school ratings trail national norms, factors that may influence the resident mix and unit configuration strategies relative to family-oriented demand.
Relative to U.S. neighborhoods, this area benchmarks below the national median on safety metrics, and its crime rank sits below the midpoint compared with 1,441 Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale neighborhoods. However, according to WDSuite’s CRE market data, estimated property offense rates declined year over year, indicating a recent improvement trend. Investors should view safety as mixed: weaker than many national and metro peers, but with signs of easing property incidents.
Proximity to a diverse employment base supports commuter convenience and renter demand, with nearby roles spanning industrial gases, healthcare, consumer products, and air travel operations. The following employers anchor the area’s workforce within a practical drive-time for residents:
- Air Products & Chemicals — industrial gases (4.7 miles)
- Molina Healthcare — healthcare services (6.7 miles) — HQ
- Mattel — toys & consumer products (9.7 miles) — HQ
- Airgas — industrial gases (10.1 miles)
- Southwest Airlines Counter — airline operations (11.6 miles)
25109 Ebony Ln offers investors a newer-than-neighborhood vintage (1986) in a top-quartile Los Angeles metro neighborhood, with above-median neighborhood occupancy supporting income durability. The submarket’s high-cost ownership landscape and strong amenity density underpin depth of renter demand, while the asset’s era suggests potential to drive returns through focused interior and system updates against predominantly older local stock. According to CRE market data from WDSuite, neighborhood-level occupancy performance compares favorably to metro peers, reinforcing a stable leasing backdrop.
Within a 3-mile radius, households have increased even as population has drifted modestly lower, indicating smaller household sizes and a sustained renter pool. Forecast rent growth, rising incomes, and proximity to diversified employers add support to long-term fundamentals. Key watch items include below-median safety metrics, limited park access, and household affordability management given elevated ownership costs and a rent-to-income profile that warrants attentive renewals and pricing.
- Above-median neighborhood occupancy and top-quartile metro ranking support leasing stability
- 1986 vintage newer than local average, with value-add potential via modernization
- High-cost ownership market reinforces renter reliance, aiding retention and pricing power
- Dense amenities and access to diversified employers bolster demand
