A $12.8 million permit application filed Nov. 4 with the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety describes a 7-story, 124-unit, 100% affordable apartment building at 1463-1467 S. Wellesley Ave. in Sawtelle. The filing is at plan check, and no permit has been issued.
The applicant is not named in the public dataset, and we could not pull the applicant record, so we do not identify the developer. The filing shows demolition of three existing single-family dwellings on two adjoining lots, Lots 82 and 83 of Tract 5598.

Why it matters
The permit cites the city’s 100% affordable housing program and the state SB 330 housing law. Both are tools to speed approvals for all-affordable projects, and both are now shaping West LA’s pipeline. For builders and lenders, a 124-unit filing on two small lots signals how much density affordable developers are chasing on R2-zoned streets.
The permit lists 1 automobile space, 91 long-term and 10 short-term bicycle spaces. That puts the project in the low-parking category that has become common for affordable filings in the area.
The numbers
The filing declares a valuation of $12,810,400 for 67,539 square feet of building (77,330 square feet gross), a 6.38 floor-area ratio, at 74 feet 2 inches tall. The unit mix is 98 low income, 25 moderate income and one manager’s unit. Floors 1 and 2 are Type I construction and floors 3 through 7 are Type III, fully sprinklered. The Assessor lists the 1463 parcel at a current-roll land value of $1.62 million, based on a 2022 ownership change.
What’s next
The permit notes that an earlier application, 22010-10000-03863, must be withdrawn before the permit is ready to issue. Watch for that withdrawal, the issuance date, and any financing filings that would name the owner. More filings are on our Los Angeles market page.
