AddressIntel AI Briefing
An expansive lot size of over 10,000 sqft makes an SB 9 lot split into multiple units the optimal play to bypass standard density maximums. This massive yard is ideal for establishing multiple detached units with separate access lanes. Liquefaction is the primary development blocker, mandating soils testing prior to foundation pouring.

Back-of-the-napkin deal analysis across development strategies.
We don't hold this jurisdiction's floor-area rule, so the default builds to roughly 5,663 sqft from a conservative 0.40 FAR approximation — a starting point, not a zoning answer. Check the local code before you rely on it.
Median of 3 recent single-family sales in Santa Clara (95050): $1,027/sqft. Sized within 50% of the 5,700 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.
Projected Profit
Warning: Margin is tight for the construction risk.
