Description

1817 2nd Street is a 30-unit multifamily community located in Duarte, California. The offering represents a rare opportunity to acquire a sizable apartment community in a tightly held submarket, with no multifamily properties currently listed for sale in Duarte and no Class B or Class C multifamily sales recorded in the city during 2025 or year-to-date 2026. Built in 1966 and situated on a 1.20-acre parcel, the property offers a desirable unit mix weighted toward larger floor plans, with 21 of the 30 units configured as 2 and 3-bedroom residences. The community features a strong amenity package that includes gated access, a swimming pool, an on-site laundry facility, and ample on-site parking consisting of covered and surface spaces. The ample parking as well as an underutilized recreation room/clubhouse, offer a potential Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) conversion opportunity that could enhance the asset’s income profile. 1817 2nd Street offers investors multiple avenues to pursue upside. A comprehensive unit renovation program, coupled with the potential installation of in-unit laundry hookups or machines, could help position the property to achieve premium rental rates over time. Ownership may also have the ability to improve operating efficiency through the implementation of a RUBS program to recover a portion of utility expenses. The property is located in a predominantly residential Duarte setting surrounded largely by single-family homes, while remaining close to key neighborhood amenities and regional transportation. Residents are within walking distance of Duarte High School and enjoy convenient access to retail, dining, and service uses along Huntington Drive, the city’s historic Route 66 corridor. The location also provides easy access to Interstate 210 and Interstate 605, connecting residents throughout the San Gabriel Valley and greater Southern California. Duarte’s foothill setting near the San Gabriel Mountains further contributes to the area’s appeal and places residents within reach of nearby outdoor recreation opportunities.
