Your patience has finally paid off! ALTA Lofts is now selling. It’s time to live Bold, live ALTA and still live within your means. These artistic lofts are priced from the $200,000s and are an amazing deal by any standards. That’s right, from the $200,000s for a new loft in Los Angeles. And, FHA financing will be available.

Here’s what you get from the $200,000s:

Live Bold with authentic loft living in every sense of the word. You’ll find raw spaces crafted from an historic building: the Fuller Paint Warehouse Building. ATLA Lofts was designed with the creative professional in mind. Each loft is a canvas for creating a space inspired by your life. No more making your life fit into a space. Live Bold and create your own space at ALTA.

ALTA is located in one of the most historic neighborhoods in Los Angeles, Lincoln Heights. Growing in popularity for its sense of community and quickly becoming a hot bed for the creative at heart, Lincoln Heights is in close proximity to Downtown L.A., Chinatown, Dodger Stadium, Silverlake and more. There is also the Metro Goldline station within walking distance. But, if you have to drive, ALTA has an attached parking garage helping you to avoid one of L.A.’s greatest hassles – PARKING!

Live BOLD. Live ALTA. Live within your means. Priced from the $200,000s – ALTA Lofts are now selling. Come in today and pre-qualify for FHA financing.

Over the last decade or so, loft living – once thought to be only for the truly bohemian and starving artists - has become an increasingly popular lifestyle.

Attribute this to the cool raw spaces that classic lofts provide, hip locations or large windows which lofts are known for which allow both natural light and urban views to spill in. It’s no wonder that this trend has caught on.

But, because it’s trendy, lofts are going up everywhere. True, classic lofts are harder and harder to come by. For some, the purists, many new loft developments have stretched the term “loft living” a little too far. This is not the case at ALTA Lofts.

ALTA is loft living in its purest forms. For example: no two lofts are alike, the building, formerly the Fuller Paint Warehouse, was constructed in 1925 and is a perfect blend of industrial heritage and raw space, and ALTA is located in a traditional urban setting near downtown LA where the city looks, feels and literally is at your finger tips. All of this makes ALTA a homerun for any loft-loving purist.

Being a member of an elite group doesn’t mean that we can’t have some modern style. ALTA also is adding some modern amenities. ALTA Lofts will have a community social room, a workout area and a BBQ, fusing the modern with the traditional – which is really what ALTA is all about with its two top floors of newly constructed lofts – set atop of some of the purest loft space available in Los Angeles.

Lofts have become popular among city dwellers partly because they provide living space without boundaries and allow urbanites to personalize their space around their lifestyle rather than making their lifestyle work around a fixed space. At the newest Los Angeles loft community - ALTA Lofts, this is especially true because ALTA is truly a collection of quintessential industrial, raw, artistic lofts that provide innovative cosmopolitans with an ideal canvas on which to create their space.

Artistic Environments, a Santa Monica-based interior design firm known for creating stunning loft spaces, decorated the models and sales office.

Janet Carpenter, owner of Artistic Environments, wanted to create a hip and modern décor for ALTA. This was accomplished by using the industrial vibe from the original structure - the Fuller Paint Warehouse; making the models a throwback to the time of the original architecture, while fusing them with edgy and artistic design elements.

To accomplish this, Janet got as creative as the residents who are likely to live at ALTA. In addition to her usual sources, Carpenter hit the flea markets, local galleries, swap meets and various funky eastside boutiques to fabricate these creative spaces; a mix of a collector, art lover and hipster. The models and sales office were designed to be a reflection of the ultimate loft lifestyle; creativity at its finest.

No two lofts at ALTA are the same. Each new owner will enjoy defining their home in a way that intrinsically defines who they are and how they live.

Thanks to all of the Los Angeles Brokers who made it to our events this week at ALTA Lofts – LA’s newest and hippest loft community.

Brokers were impressed by ALTA and here’s why:

ALTA is an amazing deal for Angelenos who are looking for the loft of their dreams at an entry-level price. And, ALTA Lofts offers a solution for many who thought that they could not afford a home in Los Angeles! Brokers are excited to be introducing these brand new lofts to their clients and giving them an opportunity to buy a home in LA.

Some of the key points of broker enthusiasm were:

• The Pricing: ALTA Lofts are priced from the $200s. Amazing!
• The New Home Buyer Tax Credit. Many of their clients will qualify for the $8,000 tax credit.
• The building and the lofts, where history meets design, are a perfect mix of the iconic and eclectic. They are not just offering buyers a great deal – they are offering them a great place to live.
