Building in Beverly Hills

Beverly Hills operates its own building department, separate from LADBS, with distinct codes, design review requirements, and a Architectural Commission for properties in specific zones. Our team has deep experience navigating these processes — from R-1 single-family zoning in the flats to hillside development standards on Trousdale and the roads above Sunset.

Beverly Hills FAQ

How much does new construction cost in Beverly Hills?

New construction in Beverly Hills ranges from $500 to $800+ per square foot depending on location, lot conditions, and finish level. Hillside properties above Sunset typically cost more due to grading, retaining walls, and extended engineering requirements. A 5,000 sq ft estate home can range from $2.5M to $4M+ in construction costs.

How long does Beverly Hills permitting take?

Beverly Hills plan check typically takes 3–6 months for new construction. Projects requiring Architectural Commission review or in specific overlay zones may add additional time. Interior remodels with no structural changes can be permitted in weeks.

Does Beverly Hills have its own building department?

Yes. Beverly Hills operates independently from LADBS with its own Community Development Department. This means different plan check processes, inspection schedules, and design review requirements compared to the City of Los Angeles. Our team knows both systems well.

Can I build an ADU in Beverly Hills?

Yes. Under California state law, Beverly Hills must allow ADUs on single-family and multi-family properties. The city has adopted specific standards for setbacks, height, and design compatibility.
