What if adding affordable housing could actually increase your total unit count?
That’s exactly what CIM Group is doing in Hollywood. At a Sunset Boulevard project, they boosted density from 109 to 172 units by adding an extra floor — all by leveraging city incentives tied to affordability.
In exchange, more units are reserved for extremely low-income residents.
This “affordability-for-density” tradeoff is becoming a major trend across Los Angeles — and it’s reshaping how smart developers maximize deal potential.
If you’re a developer or investor, understanding these incentives can completely change your numbers.
