AddressIntel AI Briefing
While the massive lot size suggests great potential for an SB 9 lot split into multiple units, the extremely high asking price relative to localized comps limits immediate flippability. Additionally, the existing home is already fully updated, making a teardown play highly inefficient. Stealth density: primary + ADU + JADU is the only practical long-term play if the purchase basis can be negotiated.

Proforma ROI Calculator
Back-of-the-napkin deal analysis across development strategies.
Zoning allows roughly 6,605 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 7 recent single-family sales in Redwood City (94061): $844/sqft. Sized within 50% of the 6,600 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.
