AddressIntel AI Briefing

With four active listings in the building, this property presents a compelling bulk-purchase play for institutional or joint-venture buyers seeking to negotiate a portfolio discount. Active local permit history in the building indicates a strong contractor presence and steady modernization of the complex. The solid rental yield potential makes it an attractive income investment, though buyers must account for the AO flood zone designation in their insurance underwriting.

Proforma ROI Calculator

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

Median of 12 recent condo sales in San Jose (95133): $543/sqft, plus 5% because new houses sold at a median 1.07x their comps across 239 real rebuilds. Sized within 25% of the 1,200 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.
