AddressIntel AI Briefing
Given the age of the 1930 structure, a teardown-and-mansionize approach or an SB 9 lot split is structurally attractive, but the active liquefaction zone presents a design blocker. Mitigating this risk through enhanced soil engineering makes a stealth density: primary + ADU + JADU strategy a safer, lighter-weight alternative. This approach preserves the initial structure while avoiding deep foundation engineering.

ADU Potential

Redevelopment Potential
Meaningful unused floor-area headroom under current zoning, room to add square footage. Zoning allows roughly 3,000 sqft of gross floor area on this lot.
Screening estimate comparing existing living area to the city's single-family floor-area limit. FAR rule curated from current municipal code.

Proforma ROI Calculator
Back-of-the-napkin deal analysis across development strategies.
Zoning allows roughly 3,000 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 12 recent single-family sales in Redwood City (94062): $1,241/sqft. Sized within 25% of the 3,000 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.
