1852 N Wilton Pl — Investment Snapshot

The Three Numbers

Where it clears.

Every property gets three numbers. Low is the defensible floor — the hard number I'd hold in a soft market. Most Likely is the realistic close — what I walk into a buyer conversation with. Reach is the aspirational ask — room for offer-to-reduce dynamics, gives you upside if the trade moves fast.

Market Read · Los Angeles

How this submarket is trading.

Who You're Working With

WHY I built this.

I'm Taylor Avakian. I sell apartment buildings in Los Angeles, full stop. Not retail, not industrial, not hotels. Multifamily, in this market, every day.

Most owner-broker conversations start with a one-page valuation that doesn't show the work. I built this site for the opposite reason — so you can see exactly how I priced your property, stress-test it against your own assumptions, and decide what to do with the real numbers in front of you. No mystery, no theatrics.

If a deal doesn't pencil, I'll say so. If selling is wrong for you right now, I'll tell you that too. The long game beats the next commission every time.
