AddressIntel AI Briefing

Stealth density via primary plus ADU is the optimal play here, given SB 9 is entirely blocked by the restrictive 2,178 sqft lot. A high median household income of $243,661 supports a strong resale ceiling, though construction on this tight footprint is physically constrained. Investors should focus on a cosmetic interior refresh of the existing 1994 structure while utilizing the ministerial ADU pathway.

Flag / irregular · Corner lot · ~65 ft frontage × 73 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.

Proforma ROI Calculator

Back-of-the-napkin deal analysis across development strategies.

Zoning allows roughly 1,760 sqft on this lot, and the default builds to that envelope. The FAR figure is a discretionary-review trigger, not a hard cap.

Median of 12 recent single-family sales in Mountain View (94040): $1,963/sqft. Sized within 25% of the 1,800 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.
