Artist In Residence

EVE CAPITAL is happy to announce the successful sale of 308 Venice Way, a creative artist's live/work loft two blocks from the world-famous and free-spirited Venice Beach.
 
The team at EVE CAPITAL knew how to market this unique steel-frame and kalwall-clad building to the right pool of buyers. Being well-versed in the history of the building, its architecture, and the neighborhood, we could speak to all of its strengths and point out the details that other brokers might miss. Always open to collaboration, we called upon our network of potential buyers and brokers who we knew would be interested in a one-of-a-kind space.
 
Managing the sale of an unusual property in an unpredictable economy was not easy, but EVE CAPITAL agents know that through perseverance and our extensive network, the perfect buyer, who can appreciate the property's forward design and even its quirks, would materialize.
 
This modern artist-in-residence, two-building property had been used for two decades as a design, animation, and production studio, and this creative legacy will continue with the new owners who plan to generate amazing innovative content for years to come.

Family Owned Industrial Bowtruss Building

Multigenerational hold of a beautiful bowtruss industrial building along the new route of the Crenshaw/LAX Metro line. The current family operator was looking to retire and capitalize on the neighboring developments. EVE CAPITAL agents were able to secure a Buyer wanting to remodel the property for use as commercial ghost kitchens. We negotiated competitive Seller carried financing to help the Buyer move quickly and also allow the Seller to spreadout their capital gains tax. As with many industrial deals, environmental issues played a factor and the agents at EVE CAPITAL were able to calmly and quickly mitigate any problems allowing for a smooth closing for all parties.

8-Unit Apartment Building in Venice

This 8-unit apartment complex in Venice Beach located at 52-60 Market Street half a block from the world-famous boardwalk, skatepark, and sandy beach.​ There are twelve tandem parking spaces onsite and the soft story retrofit was completed in 2018.​

When the Seller passed away last year, the beneficiaries hired a Trustor to help them dispose of the estate’s assets. We met with the Trustor and presented ambitious pricing, but knowing the local market intimately, we felt confident. We received offers from 8 Buyers, some even above our aggressive asking price. To tease out the best Buyer, we issued a call for best and final, and were surprised when the Trustor and Beneficiaries were most interested in a lower priced non-contingent offer. The Sellers placed a higher value on surety of close over pricing. Armed with this new information we went back to all the potential Buyers and gave them an opportunity to submit their best and final non-contingent offer. The Sellers reviewed all the offers received and chose the best non-contingent offer. We opened escrow immediately and closed in 15 days.

Sometimes a sale isn’t only about the highest price. In this case, having confidence in the closing and not lingering in escrow was what the client wanted most of all. Eve Capital places the highest importance on supporting the goals of our clients in every instance.

14 Unit Apartment Complex in Inglewood

Eve Capital knows the Inglewood neighborhood well, and was contracted to sell a 14-Unit apartment complex located on a lovely block in a prime location. 428-432 Regent Street presents beautifully, as the property is lined with palm trees, filled with mature landscaping, and consists of a mix of bungalow-style apartments, a 4 bedroom house, and a multi-unit building on two parcels of land. Fifteen parking spaces are part of the property, and there is abundant street parking nearby.
 
Underlying challenges came with the property, however, as it included a non-conforming unit, and a tenant in arrears. There was substantial deferred maintenance, including foundations and roofs in need of repair. Not to be deterred, the team at Eve Capital knew exactly how to highlight the incredible opportunities of this investment property, while communicating openly about its challenges.
 
We broadly marketed this unique property to a lengthy list of investors, and generated immediate interest, despite its current condition. We also called upon our list of aggressive Buyers in order to drum up interest among those whom we knew would appreciate this type of investment.
 
It was important to choose a Buyer who would perform according to contract. While in escrow we continued to market and field backup offers until all contingencies were removed. We were also able to negotiate Seller carried financing terms that benefitted all parties.
 
Eve Capital adeptly represented both the Seller and the Buyer in this transaction.
 
Eve Capital understands the uniqueness of every commercial property, and has the expertise to communicate that vision with integrity and enthusiasm to potential buyers and investors.

Located in Mar Vista at the signalized corner at Inglewood Blvd, 12000 Washington Place is a fantastic investment for investors looking for a multi-use creative building.
 
This is not just a triplex! Relative to surrounding traditional buildings, Eve Capital priced 12000 Washington Place higher per unit and per square foot than anything else in the neighborhood because of its special qualities. We immediately recognized the unique aspects of this property as benefits, not obstacles, and were able to successfully find multiple Buyers who also saw its value.
 
Selling high vacancy properties can be tricky in this market.

Being able to communicate the value, even with properties that are 100% vacant like this one, is crucial for a successful sale.
