AddressIntel AI Briefing
Severe flood zone and liquefaction hazards act as major blockers that completely eliminate SB 9 split viability. Consequently, developers should pursue a low-impact stealth density: primary + ADU + JADU strategy to minimize costly structural foundation upgrades. Given the updated condition of the main house, focusing on detached backyard ADUs is the safest way to extract additional yield from this site.

Parcel & Zoning Info
ADU Potential
Flag / irregular · Corner lot · ~116 ft frontage × 130 ft deep, a tucked-away rear unit is very private; access is typically via the pole driveway. A second street frontage lets an ADU take its own entrance and address.
Screening heuristic based on lot size, existing coverage, lot orientation, and hazard overlays. CA ADU law is ministerial statewide; verify max size, setbacks, and JADU owner-occupancy with the local planning dept.
Redevelopment Potential
SB 79 preempts the limit these figures are measured against. This parcel sits within a half mile of a qualifying transit stop in a city that adopted the state standards, so state law overrides the local height and density caps and the governing envelope is a multifamily one, substantially larger than the city's single-family allowance. Read the score, class and headroom above as describing the municipal rule only, not this parcel's ceiling. Confirm the city's adopted SB 79 implementation before underwriting.
Meaningful unused floor-area headroom under current zoning, room to add square footage. The city’s single-family rule allows roughly 3,136 sqft of gross floor area on this lot.

SB 79 governs this parcel. It sits within a half mile of a qualifying transit stop in a city that adopted the state standards, so state law preempts the local height and density limits and the real ceiling here is a multifamily one, well above what the city's single-family rule allows. The figures below model a detached rebuild, which is not the play on this lot — we don't quote a return on it. Check the city's adopted SB 79 implementation before you underwrite.
Median of 12 recent single-family sales in San Jose (95125): $1,114/sqft. Sized within 25% of the 3,100 sqft build, because smaller houses sell for more per foot and pricing a rebuild off them overstates resale.
Commission, transfer tax and closing. Deducted from resale before profit, so the ROI below is net of the exit rather than gross.
Carry on total capital for the project duration. At 0% the model is a cash purchase; 12 months at a typical construction-loan rate moves ROI by 6 to 10 points on a deal this size, so price it with your real rate.
