AddressIntel AI Briefing
Focusing on preserving and restoring the massive existing estate is the optimal play to maintain its grand scale on the oversized lot. Since local replacement ARV comps fail to support the high purchase basis, a classic luxury renovation of the current shell is the only logical path. Investors can target affluent buyers looking for a historic or signature property.

Proforma ROI Calculator
Back-of-the-napkin deal analysis across development strategies.
Median of 4 recent multi-family sales in San Jose (95128): $433/sqft, plus 5% because new houses sold at a median 1.07x their comps across 239 real rebuilds. Sized within 50% of the 10,400 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.
