AddressIntel AI Briefing
The optimal play is teardown-and-mansionize, which is supported by a positive developer ROI and strong local comparable sales exceeding $1,200/sqft. Alternatively, stealth density: primary + ADU + JADU is highly viable with a 100/100 ADU feasibility score on this 9,148 sqft lot. The lack of hazard zones and high median household income ($250,001) in Los Gatos further secure the exit valuation.

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

Proforma ROI Calculator
Back-of-the-napkin deal analysis across development strategies.
Zoning allows roughly 2,898 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 Los Gatos (95032): $1,332/sqft. Sized within 25% of the 2,900 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.
