Beverly Hills Multifamily Real Estate Market Overview

Beverly Hills is one of the most prestigious and sought-after locations for multifamily investment on the Westside of Los Angeles. Synonymous with luxury, glamour, and stability, Beverly Hills continues to attract high-net-worth tenants and discerning investors seeking long-term appreciation and resilient cash flow.

The city is centrally located and bordered by Bel Air and the Santa Monica Mountains to the northwest, West Hollywood to the east, and Beverlywood to the south. Major arteries include Sunset Boulevard, Santa Monica Boulevard, Wilshire Boulevard, and the iconic Rodeo Drive. The renowned “Golden Triangle” shopping district serves as a global destination for luxury retail, while the area offers world-class dining, cultural venues like the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, and beautiful green spaces such as Beverly Gardens Park.

For apartment building owners and investors, Beverly Hills stands out due to its exceptional location prestige, strong demand from high-income professionals, and severely limited new housing supply. These factors contribute to premium rental rates, high occupancy, and consistent long-term property appreciation, making Beverly Hills one of Southern California’s most exclusive and stable multifamily submarkets.

It is imperative to understand how rent control and Measure ULA exposure will impact the value of your Beverly Hills apartment building

Beverly Hills Multifamily Market Overview 2026

Beverly Hills is an independent city known for its prestige, strong renter demand, and limited multifamily inventory. Cap rates in the area typically range from approximately 4.5% to 5.5%, reflecting the premium location and buyer competition. Price per unit commonly falls in the $350,000 to $550,000+ range, depending on building quality, unit mix, and exact location within the city.

The typical apartment building is a smaller 4- to 20-unit property, often courtyard-style or low-rise, with a mix of pre- and post-1970s construction. Buyer demand comes from high-net-worth individuals, 1031 exchange buyers, and long-term investors seeking stable, trophy Westside assets.

Beverly Hills Rent Control and Measure ULA

Beverly Hills has its own Rent Stabilization Ordinance (separate from the City of Los Angeles LARSO). Most multi-unit buildings are subject to the city’s rules, which currently allow maximum annual increases of approximately 3.3%–3.6% depending on the unit chapter (Chapter 5 or Chapter 6). Buildings not covered by the local ordinance may still fall under AB 1482 statewide protections.

Measure ULA does not apply in Beverly Hills. Because Beverly Hills is an independent municipality, the City of Los Angeles transfer tax surcharges (4% and 5.5%) have no legal force here. This is a meaningful advantage for sellers of higher-value buildings compared with properties located inside the City of Los Angeles.

How to Sell a Beverly Hills Apartment Building

Beverly Hills benefits from limited supply, strong buyer demand, and the absence of Measure ULA. Sellers of long-held properties must still navigate low tax basis, depreciation recapture, and potential 1031 exchange planning.

An experienced Beverly Hills multifamily listing broker who understands Beverly Hills’ local rent stabilization rules and the broader Westside buyer pool can help you evaluate pricing and the optimal path to maximize your net proceeds.
