Time to Buy or Sell a Loft in Downtown Los Angeles?

Where is Downtown Los Angeles Real Estate in the market cycle?  DTLA is different from most real estate markets. Downtown has most recently been approximately 1 year late in the down cycle and 1 year early in the up cycle.  Downtown did not experience the rapid deceleration until 2009, and then experienced an early, dramatic uptick in home prices by the end of 2012. It is important to know that those who rely on the national financial news to help make real estate decisions for Downtown are bound to be a year off the mark for market timing.

Because we receive reports every day from real buyers, sellers and renters on the streets of Downtown, and in the lofts of Los Angeles, the L.A. Loft Blog has proven to be the only resource for timely, powerful and accurate real estate news with market timing and market calls for the past 5 years. Of course, prospective home buyers and investors must rely on their own research, as the L.A. Loft Blog is but one tool out of many to help figure out the unpredictable nature of markets.

Below are three similar versions of market cycle charts. On the emotion scale of the first chart, Downtown Los Angeles is today at the Optimism phase based on the volume of reports to the L.A. Loft Blog. Still in the cautiously optimistic phase, home buyers are still motivated largely by caution.  As the need for caution wanes, Downtown will enter the excitement phase, likely right after the U.S. experiences an unexpected stock market upswing in 2016/2017.

On the 2nd chart, Downtown Los Angeles is also at the Optimism level.

market-cycle-emotion

On the Michael A. Kupritz chart, Downtown L.A. is still in the “Get in on the Boom” phase, but is no where near the “Prices Will Rise Forever” phase.  The sentiment still has too much caution and too many saying “Don’t Trust the Rally.”

Newberry Lofts Building Downtown Los Angeles Arts District

NEWBERRY LOFTS FOR LEASE  |  NEW LEASE LISTINGS  |  UNLISTED LOFTS

900 East 1st Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012

Newberry Lofts in the Arts District of Downtown L.A. was originally the main warehouse for JR Newberry Co, a Los Angeles grocery store chain that housed a candy store, blacksmith shop and restaurant. The building is eligible under Criterion C of the U.S. National Park Service as a representative example of industrial warehouses at the turn of the century. The renovated lofts for lease feature exposed brick walls, floor-to-ceiling windows, city views, granite kitchens, baths and some customized features. Because the building has been home to many students of the nearby Southern California Institute of Architecture, the units vary greatly on how much or how little they have been modified and upgraded.

IN THE HEART OF THE ARTS DISTRICT

The classically converted warehouse offers high ceilings, large wooden beams and accent brick walls. There is a very wide open living areas, so tenants may bring their own creativity and possibly make customizations. Some of the loft rental homes have new all electric kitchens, updated bathrooms, durable concrete floors and industrial heating and air conditioning. Tenants in the upper floors can relax and enjoy the amazing city views in in the middle of the highly desirable Arts District.

ABOUT JR NEWBERRY

J. R. Newberry was the pioneering founder of one of the first Los Angeles grocery chains. He is also known as one of the organizers of the Merchants and Manufacturers Association, as well as one of the first directors of the Chamber of Commerce. He was part of a group of local business leaders instrumental in bringing in the Santa Fe Railroad to the area. By this time, the Flats, as the lowlands along the Los Angeles River were called, developed into the warehouse district. The J. R. Newberry Company was one of four early buildings in the district, predating construction of the 1st Street Viaduct. Character-defining features of the warehouse include its location and close proximity to the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad rail yards, the simple plan, relatively plain wall surface, random placement of the fenestration and the use of brick as a construction material.

Parking is available, and may be included with some units. Dogs and Cats are now accepted, subject to management rules.

Newberry Lofts apartments is two blocks from Sci-Arc,  close to the 101 Freeway,  walkable to Little Tokyo Village, near grocery, restaurants and shopping.
