Property Description
To access marketing package copy/paste: https://bit.ly/kitehillre. 1535 Julia Street presents a rare opportunity to acquire a 100% occupied, five-unit multifamily property in one of the East Bay's most coveted and supply-constrained rental markets. The property offers an exceptional unit mix - (3) one-bedroom, (1) two-bedroom, and (1) three-bedroom/two-bath units - delivering immediate, diversified cash flow from day one while appealing to a broad spectrum of renters. With updated interiors and modern finishes throughout, the asset is well-positioned to command premium rents as units turn, with an estimated 30-40% rental upside on the horizon - a compelling value-add runway that sets this offering apart. Ideally situated minutes from Ashby BART Station, residents enjoy direct, seamless access to Oakland and San Francisco, making this a premier transit-oriented location that consistently drives leasing demand. The surrounding neighborhood offers strong walkability, robust bike infrastructure, and proximity to Berkeley's vibrant retail and dining scene - exactly the lifestyle amenities today's renters prioritize. Separately metered gas, electric, and water utilities shift costs to tenants and protect the investor's bottom line.
