The Long Beach 5+ Unit Market Just CRASHED — Here's What $1M Buys You in 2026

The 5+ unit apartment market in Long Beach has crashed — and for the first time in years, investors are buying at REAL discounts. Sellers who bought in 2021 are losing $500K to $1M+ on their exits. Banks are taking hits. And smart investors? They're loading up. In this episode, Cody and I break down 4 real Long Beach apartment buildings (19 units, 12+ADU, 21 studios, and a 20-unit short sale) and show you exactly what $1,000,000 down gets you in today's market — cap rates, debt coverage ratios, cash flow projections, and the special 5.1% loan program most investors don't know about. If you've been waiting for the right time to get into multifamily, this is it. The clearance rack is open. 🔗 Want the full investor breakdown, off-market deals, and a free property valuation? 👉 https://www.sageregroup.com/youtube/ 0:00  The Long Beach 5+ Market Has Crashed 0:52  What $1M Down Actually Buys You Today 1:37  Deal #1 — 19-Unit Downtown Long Beach ($500K Discount) 4:11  The 5.1% Special Loan Program Explained 4:35  Debt Coverage Ratio — What Banks Actually Want 7:13  Why the 5+ Market Is Different (Cash Flow Guaranteed) 7:59  Deal #2 — 12-Unit Trophy Property in Alamitos Beach 10:00  Why "Buy & Hold" Beats "Value-Add" Right Now 11:04  Deal #3 — 21-Unit Studio Building (7.5 Cap Rate Upside) 14:31  Deal #4 — 20-Unit Short Sale ($750K Below Peak) 16:21  What I Just Bought (8-Unit + 10-Unit Real Examples) 18:29  The Truth About "Off-Market Deals" (You're Being Lied To) 19:37  Why MLS Listings Are the BEST Deals Right Now 20:54  How to Work With Sage Real Estate 👇 NEXT STEPS FOR INVESTORS ✅ Get on the VIP Off-Market Deals list ✅ Free multifamily property valuation ✅ Schedule a 1-on-1 investor consultation 👉 https://www.sageregroup.com/youtube/ #LongBeachRealEstate #MultifamilyInvesting #ApartmentInvesting #RealEstateInvesting #LongBeachCA #Fourplex #WealthBuilding #LandlordLife #RealEstateInvestor #CCIM #SoCal #1031Exchange #CapRate ✉️ Get In Touch: https://www.sageregroup.com/youtube/ 🎙️Own More Doors Podcast: https://www.sageregroup.com/podcast/ 🏡 Sage Trust Mortgage: https://www.sageregroup.com/mortgage/ -------------------------------- Juan Huizar is a Licensed California Real Estate Broker (BRE 01417642), Certified Commercial Investment Member (CCIM), and seasoned real estate investor dedicated to helping clients build wealth and achieve financial independence through real estate.
