Los Angeles Real Estate Lawsuits, Litigation and Mediation

Which Downtown L.A. condominium buildings have seen the most legal action?

Lawsuits or litigation have involved many condominium buildings and HOA Home Owners Associations in Downtown Los Angeles over the years, including 1100 Wilshire, Barker Block, Biscuit Company, Flower Street, Molino Lofts, Luma, Puerta Del Sol, Alta, Market Lofts, Higgins Building (also an assessment a few years ago), Concerto, Library Court, Bunker Hill Tower, Eastern Columbia, Sky Lofts, Skyline Condos, Savoy, Grand Avenue Lofts, Evo, Elleven, Cornell Building and Little Tokyo Lofts. Additionally, many smaller, unpublicized legal skirmishes have taken place, including a lawsuit between an SB Grand penthouse owner and the developer Barry Shy. Others include loft buyers who thought that their parking was deeded, until they lost their parking spaces to the real owners. Another quiet lawsuit took place between an Alta lofts homeowner and the old HOA board that failed to properly review a loft unit home improvement approval request.

Just yesterday, we heard that new super luxury highrise condos Perla home sales are on hold due to a mechanic’s lien from one of the construction companies. This made us ask if the communist China controlled concern is having financial issues just like many other mainland China based real estate companies. We were told “no,” and that there was simply a disagreement with a contractor. This calls for more investigation into the exact nature, cause and disposition of Perla’s legal issues. Coincidently, SCG also has a legal/financial issue with its Trinidad construction project.

Mediation

Several smaller, more quiet legal skirmishes have occurred, usually little notice and no fanfare. Currently, one loft buyer just filed a request for free mediation through the CAR California Association of Realtors regarding an historic loft that reportedly has issues of missing property components after close of escrow, issues regarding noise, plumbing and electrical. Experienced real estate agents suggest settling issues before litigation and before mediation because litigation can be extremely expensive, and mediation is not always successful.

Mediation is often required per the contract provided by CAR. Most of these home purchase contracts require mediation before litigation, otherwise there may be a penalty such as the inability to recover attorney’s fees.

Downtown Los Angeles: New Cycle Cafe Serves Fun For Everyone All Day Long in The Arts District

The all-day restaurant Detroit Vesey’s in the Arts District leans queer, sober, and cyclist-heavy. Still, owner Erin Detroit Vesey doesn’t want to limit anyone from having a good time inside the newly established cycle Mecca in the DTLA arts district at:

“Both [cycling and queer] cultures have specific times where you often go and do things,” says Vesey, ending cycling rides with friends and taking in evening shows. “I wanted to figure out how to make that work for an all-day, sober situation.” In November, the shop opened, offering a mostly breakfast and lunch menu filled with staple LA options like a breakfast burrito (available vegan), a burger, and a fried chicken sandwich. There are nods to Detroit as a dining town, too, like Sanders chocolate, cheese curds, and Faygo sodas. In addition, there are plans to install a new alcohol license to serve cocktails next year — alongside quality mocktails and other non-alcoholic drinks for the sober crowd and those who have a long ride home.

There is a continually growing network of bike lanes, paths, and routes in Los Angeles from the famous LA River Bike Path to the Venice Beach boardwalk where a cruiser is critical, and numerous spots, in between. But, Downtown Los Angeles (DTLA) and its neighboring Arts District is truly the place to ride. For a guide to riding in the arts district, check out the link here.
