Background

Located west of Lincoln Blvd, 638 Rose was a value-add fourplex several blocks from an eclectic stretch of new mixed-use developments, award-winning restaurants, and Silicon Beach tech companies. A Compass residential agent listed the property. Determined to achieve a “premium” price for her international client, Sabine Pleissner brought Max Berger & KST onto the listing. With an unparalleled network of agents, high-net-worth clientele, and unmatched multifamily experience, this dynamic partnership offered the listing greater exposure in the residential and commercial markets.

Result

Despite offering the property at a 4.3% CAP, the enticing unit mix (all 2-bdrm. units) and desirable location interested several buyers. We were in escrow at 95% of the listed price after four months of marketing. Escrow closed in 45 days at $2,175,640 ($716 per foot and $543,910 per unit). The sale of 638 Rose is the 2ND HIGHEST VENICE FOURPLEX SALE over the last 12 months. Additionally, this marks our fifth successful residential referral in 2024, and our 10th+ successful referral in the last 12 months.

Speaking for myself and everyone involved, you were absolutely the best broker we could have selected to market our portfolio. You found an incredible buyer and were able to guide us through so many challenges, including a global pandemic, and secured us a price beyond our expectations.
