Frequently asked questions
How many apartments for rent are available in Sherman Oaks right now?
Nearly every apartment in Sherman Oaks sits in a band a few blocks deep between Ventura Boulevard and Oxnard Street, mostly two- and three-story courtyard buildings put up in the 1960s and 1970s when the flats were subdivided for rental. South of Ventura the hillsides are single-family, and the rental supply there is houses and the occasional condo rather than buildings. Roomster shows 74 apartments for rent across the neighborhood, weighted toward Kester, Hazeltine, Woodman and the corridor near the Sherman Oaks Galleria. Because so much of the stock is small and individually owned, listings appear one at a time rather than in blocks.
How much does it cost to rent an apartment in Sherman Oaks?
The neighborhood average sits near $2,525 and has moved only about 1 percent over the past year, one of the steadier corners of the Los Angeles market. Studios run around $1,800 to $1,900, one-bedrooms cluster near $2,200, and two-bedrooms average roughly $2,700. You can find one-bedrooms under $2,000 a month in the upper flats near Oxnard, around Kester and Woodman, and along the Van Nuys boundary, where the buildings are older and the walk to Ventura Boulevard is longer. The premium concentrates in the blocks closest to Ventura and toward the Studio City line, where walkability and the studio commute both improve.
Is there rent control on Sherman Oaks apartments for rent?
It depends which side of Ventura Boulevard you are on, and that is not a figure of speech here. Sherman Oaks is inside the City of Los Angeles, so the Rent Stabilization Ordinance covers units with a certificate of occupancy issued on or before October 1, 1978, and the flats north of Ventura are full of exactly those buildings, with an allowable increase of 3 percent for July 2026 through June 2027. The hillside stock south of Ventura is largely single-family homes and condominiums, which state law exempts from the local ordinance and, when the landlord gives the required written notice, from the statewide cap as well. Before you sign, ask the building's year of occupancy and whether the unit is registered as rent-stabilized.
What are the most affordable areas to rent an apartment in Sherman Oaks?
Move north and the price falls. The upper flats near Oxnard Street and the Van Nuys line hold the least expensive one-bedrooms in the neighborhood, followed by the blocks around Kester and Hazeltine. Prices step up as you approach Ventura Boulevard, again toward the Studio City border on the east, and again in the hills. One thing worth weighing: apartments near Sepulveda Boulevard and the 405 often price slightly below comparable units further east, because of freeway noise, but they are the fastest units in the neighborhood for a Westside commute, which is a trade a lot of renters here happily make.
Are there apartments for rent near Sherman Oaks' transit and Westside commute routes?
Sherman Oaks is where the 405 and the 101 cross, which is both its greatest advantage and its daily frustration, and it sits at the Valley mouth of the Sepulveda Pass to the Westside. Buses run Ventura Boulevard and Sepulveda, and the G Line busway tracks Oxnard Street along the northern edge. The change worth planning around arrived in January 2026, when Metro's board approved an underground heavy-rail line through the pass, a roughly 13-mile route from the Van Nuys Metrolink station to the E Line at Expo and Sepulveda, with one of its seven stations at Ventura Boulevard and an end-to-end trip of about twenty minutes. Apartments near that future station are the ones to watch.
How does Sherman Oaks compare with Studio City and Encino on apartment rent?
Sherman Oaks generally prices below Studio City, where proximity to CBS Studio Center and the walkable stretch of Ventura toward Laurel Canyon carries a premium, and roughly level with or slightly under Encino to the west, which has more newer buildings along Ventura but a longer drive to the studios. Against Van Nuys immediately north, Sherman Oaks costs noticeably more, and the boundary between them is not always obvious on the ground, so it is worth checking the ZIP on a listing that seems unusually cheap. Within Sherman Oaks itself, the north-to-south spread is wide enough that comparing neighborhoods often matters less than comparing streets.
