AddressIntel AI Briefing

As a late-1980s condo unit, this property should be evaluated strictly as an investment asset rather than a development play. The asking price sits above comparable neighborhood sales, resulting in a low initial value score despite a solid projected monthly rental yield. Lacking a multi-unit bulk purchase opportunity, investors should focus on a long-term buy-and-hold strategy to capture San Jose's steady rental growth.

Proforma ROI Calculator

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

Median of 3 recent townhome sales in San Jose (95125): $755/sqft. Sized within 25% of the 2,400 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.

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.
