How to Make a Billion Dollars in Downtown Los Angeles Real Estate

Downtown Los Angeles Bust to Billions

For decades, Downtown Los Angeles was the dark center of L.A.  But today, after more than $10 billion of new investment and renovation, the glimmering luster of DTLA is once again shining through.  The revitalization of Downtown is a powerful reminder that we can truly accomplish anything, as we are only limited by our own motivation.  We are empowered by our ability to believe. This article will also reveal how to place that motivation into action with lessons on how to make a billion dollars in real estate.

Downtown is the place to do it:  The new Los Angeles Metro rail system, along with the new home-building power of the Los Angeles Adaptive Re-Use Ordinance, gave a huge boost of momentum to Downtown’s rebirth.  Downtown has also benefited from taking advantage of the nationwide trend toward urbanization.

Along with ambitious plans, hard work and determination, thousands of fortunate, brave and savvy Downtown homeowners have recently gained hundreds of thousands of dollars of equity due to their foresight and willingness to take risks. Downtown has doubled in size since 2000. The amazing opportunities have just begun.

Now that the Downtown real estate has stabilized with a massive infrastructural boost behind it, recent annual home price gains have also been stable at 8% per year for the last two years. Fortune continues to favor the bold while the nay-sayers lose out and the scaredy-cats are getting left in the dust.

Because homeowners are doing so well with their Downtown real estate investments, it’s difficult to find bargains these days. But they do exist! Investors and would-be Downtowners can get a free list of Downtown distressed properties at http://www.DowntownLAForeclosures.com. Home buyers can also take out some of the risk with a Buyer Savings Guarantee, or Downtown buyers can reduce the risk on the investment with the Love Your Loft Guarantee.  Home sellers and buyers can find out what the loft down the street sold for at www.LALoftPrice.com.

Creativity has long been the key to making the most of Downtown during hard times, and creativity is also the key to capitalizing on its current boom.  Artists have for decades turned ugly, nearly abandoned buildings into beautiful live-work spaces using artistry and ingenuity instead of cash.  The L.A. Loft Blog recently proclaimed that Downtown Los Angeles has made the transition from economical barrio to luxury neighborhood.  Now that the gravy train has arrived (and unfortunately pushed out many starving artists), Downtown is gaining a more wealthy crowd of creatives.  The next steps and next opportunities in Downtown are to complete the transition by transforming the remaining poverty-stricken parts of Downtown (namely Skid Row), maximizing the opportunities and adding lots of polish to the new creation.

Forbes Magazine revealed 4 lessons in a magazine article entitled “How to Make a Billion Dollars in Real Estate.”  Lesson #1 is “Go Where the Money Is.”  Forbes has joined the smart crowd in realizing that Downtown Los Angeles is the ideal place to launch and succeed in our most ambitious endeavors. Business Insider has bestowed upon us not one, not four, but 25 Billion-Dollar trends.

A new mixed-use hotel, retail and residential building development is under way in Downtown Los Angeles on Olympic.  Across the street from The Ritz-Carlton, the new building will replace what is currently Downtown’s most convenient car wash.  The cars of DTLA will get a little dirtier as there are no other quick drive-through car washes in the booming neighborhood.

With some unusual features including a weird pinch in the middle, Curbed LA calls the new building design “bonkers”.

At the end of 2015, plans were unveiled for a redevelopment of the Downtown Car Wash in South Park, Olympic Tower 60-story tower with LED signs and live plants interwoven into its exterior, along with a rooftop garden.  374 residential units, 33,500 square feet of office space, a 10,800-square-foot conference center, and more than 65,000 square feet of restaurant and retail space will join a 373-room hotel.

Architecture firm Nardi Associates says that the building will feature a structural grid with live plantings, like a gigantic “urban tree”.  An open-air atrium will be encased by a metal structure with a sloping roofline, so the highrise will have a sharp roof instead of a helipad.

In 1980,  the car wash developer paid only $525,000 for the parcel. By 2005, the land was valued at $2.4 million. In 2014, developer Ben Neman bought the parcel for $25 million.

The building’s height means that it would block views of the Hotel Figueroa. There is no word on whether the residential portion will be rental or condo, but rental is more likely based on what most other developers have been choosing.

Be among the first to find out if the new highrise will contain rental apartments or condominiums for sale. Get Olympic Tower updates in your email. Fill out the online form:
