Broker Price Opinion Narrative Property: 120–126 4th Street, Del Mar, CA Opinion of Market Value: $6,000,000 Effective Date: May 27, 2026 The subject property is a four-unit multifamily investment property located in the Del Mar Beach Colony area, one lot from the Pacific Ocean. The property consists of approximately 4,429 square feet of rentable area situated on an approximately 8,100+ square foot lot. Improvements were originally constructed in 1966 and consist of three 2-bedroom/2-bath units and one 1-bedroom/1-bath unit. In developing this Broker Price Opinion, both the Income Capitalization Approach and the Land Residual Technique were considered in order to estimate current market value. Income Capitalization Analysis Based upon current market rental levels for coastal Del Mar multifamily properties with ocean proximity, the subject is estimated to support stabilized gross rental income in the range of approximately $23,000 to $25,000 per month. After deduction for vacancy allowance and operating expenses, the estimated stabilized Net Operating Income is approximately $185,000 to $195,000 annually. Applying a market capitalization rate range of approximately 3.1% to 3.4%, consistent with recent investor expectations for prime coastal Del Mar apartment assets, indicates a value range of approximately $5,700,000 to $6,200,000. Land Residual Analysis The Land Residual Technique was also considered due to the exceptional underlying land value characteristics of the property. The subject’s location, redevelopment potential, coastal zoning characteristics, and scarcity of Beach Colony multifamily parcels contribute significantly to overall value. Current market evidence in Del Mar indicates that a substantial portion of the property’s market value is attributable to the underlying land rather than the existing improvements. Based upon extraction analysis from comparable coastal sales and estimated replacement cost less depreciation of the existing improvements, the estimated contributory land value is approximately $5,000,000, with estimated depreciated improvement value contributing approximately $1,000,000. Conclusion After reconciliation of the Income Capitalization Approach and Land Residual Technique, it is my opinion that the current market value of the subject property, as of the effective date of this report, is: $6,000,000 This opinion reflects the property’s premier coastal Del Mar location, stabilized income potential, and long-term redevelopment and land value characteristics.
