strategic real estate track record
Mar Vista Redevelopment
Where most realtors stop, I start. I sold this property for $1.425M and mapped out its transformation into a 3,516 square feet modern estate with pool, rooftop waterfall, ADU, and resort-style amenities.
Beyond design, I projected resale value, analyzed buyer demographics, and aligned the layout and features with the market most likely to pay top dollar. The result: a record-setting projected resale of $4.8M–$5M in Mar Vista. Every detail was calculated to maximize return and protect investment. This isn’t standard real estate — it’s strategy.
Identified an ideal property in a high-demand submarket of Los Angeles - Culver City/Mar Vista for investment.
Helped the client with a redevelop strategy that will appreciate in value.
Secured trusted contractors through network for the project.
Palisades Land Sale
In the wake of the January 2025 Palisades Fire, the local market was in disarray—dozens of homes were destroyed, insurance claims stalled, and city permitting slowed to a crawl. While most buyers saw obstacles, Chad Lewin saw opportunity.
He helped his client secure a rare post-disaster property by leveraging the seller’s existing financing, negotiating a deferred escrow that won’t close until June 2031. This structure gave the buyer long-term flexibility and eliminated holding costs during the 1–2 year permitting process, saving an estimated $8,000 per month.

Chatsworth St
Under Construction
Chad Lewin took on one of his most ambitious projects to date with the Chatsworth Street property in Granada Hills, currently under active construction.
Originally purchased as a standard single-family residence with a large garage, Chad saw vertical opportunity and is transforming the site into a triple-income property. The project includes a full remodel of the main home and a ground-up build of a two-story, two-unit ADU—maximizing livable space and future cash flow.
Chad is managing all planning, design, city coordination, and contractor oversight in-house. Despite typical red tape and permitting delays, construction remains on schedule, with completion targeted for 2025.
Once finished, the home will offer unmatched versatility—ideal for multi-generational living or a primary residence with strong rental upside.

Bartee Ave
$650,000 to $900,000
When Chad Lewin acquired the Bartee Avenue property in Los Angeles, it wasn’t just distressed—it was in code enforcement violation with no working electricity. Most investors would have walked away. Chad saw opportunity.
He negotiated a strong deal at $650,000 and launched into a full renovation immediately—powering the entire project with generators until electricity was restored in the final week of construction. Chad personally led design, layout, contractor oversight, and timeline management to keep the build efficient and on track.
In under 90 days, the home was transformed into a modern, high-design showcase, blending function with curb appeal.
The result? A record-breaking resale at $900,000—the highest comp for that property type in the neighborhood.

Ellenview Ave
$940,000 to $1,988,000
Ellenview Avenue stands as one of the boldest design executions in Chad Lewin’s portfolio. Purchased for $940,000, the property offered scale, solid structure, and an ideal location—perfect conditions for a transformative project.
Chad stripped the home to the studs and reimagined it as a custom spec-style residence, incorporating high-end finishes, custom cabinetry, and luxury detailing throughout. Every aspect—from layout flow to stone slabs and fixtures—was personally designed to elevate the home far beyond a traditional flip.
The home attracted immediate buyer demand and ultimately closed at $1.988 million, setting a new benchmark for renovated properties in the area.

Beeman Ave
$740,000 to $1,100,000
Beeman Avenue wasn’t just a flip—it was a full value-add strategy. Chad Lewin acquired the property for $740,000 and immediately saw the untapped potential: a detached garage perfectly positioned for an ADU conversion.
While executing a high-end cosmetic renovation on the main house, Chad simultaneously designed, permitted, and built a sleek, functional ADU, adding livable square footage and long-term value. The dual approach—renovation + new construction—maximized resale potential and rental flexibility.
Despite the added complexity, Chad kept the timeline tight, completing the project in just over four months. The property sold for $1.1 million, delivering strong ROI and helping reset the local market for renovated homes with income-producing units.
