Apartment building insurance in Burbank (91505)

What this means for a building in Burbank (91505)
- Age. The median apartment building here was built in 1957, and 77% are pre-1978. That is the ordinance and law and soft-story conversation. Why it matters.
- Size. The average building is 16.7 units and about 12,654 square feet, which puts replacement cost near $4,112,550 at $325 per square foot.
- Rent regulation. The AB 1482 statewide rent cap covers most buildings more than 15 years old, which slows a rebuild and argues for 18 to 24 months of loss of rents.
- Market. 21 buildings sold here in the last six months. Each of those buyers inherited a policy that was probably wrong on at least one of the four gaps.
- Price. Older buildings across LA County are paying $1,500 to $2,500 per unit per year. What drives it.
What I would check first on a building in Burbank (91505)
If you sent me an address here, I would start with the update history on roof, plumbing, electrical and panel, with dates and permits, because underwriters price documents rather than intentions. Then the ordinance and law limits, since 77% of the buildings here would have to be rebuilt to today's code. After that, the replacement cost, because 12,654 square feet at $325 a foot is about $4,112,550 and many policies here are still carrying a number set years ago. Every one of those is public record, and checking them costs you nothing.
