Difference
+0 (+0%)

The listing and the county record agree within 10%.

What can explain a difference
  • Space built without a permit.
  • Permitted work the assessor has not recorded yet.
  • An ADU, a finished basement or a converted garage counted in one figure and not the other.
  • Different measuring. Listing agents and the assessor often measure the same house differently.

AddressIntel AI Briefing

The optimal play is stealth density: primary + ADU + JADU to capture premium rental income. Landslide hazards and moderate fire risk act as significant blockers that make a teardown-and-mansionize or SB 9 lot split cost-prohibitive.

Proforma ROI Calculator

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

Median of 7 recent single-family sales in Redwood City (94062): $823/sqft, plus 5% because new houses sold at a median 1.07x their comps across 239 real rebuilds. Sized within 25% of the 6,100 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.

Interest on the purchase price for the whole project plus half the build budget, since construction draws ramp up. The default is 7% over 33 months, the median purchase-to-sale time of 239 real Peninsula and South Bay rebuilds. Set the rate to 0 for a cash purchase, or use your own lender's terms.
