AddressIntel AI Briefing

A stealth density play utilizing a primary residence, ADU, and JADU represents the path of least resistance given the solid local lot profile. While high entry pricing dampens immediate margins, the stellar owner-occupancy rates and household incomes in this pocket secure a highly resilient exit market.

Deep lot · Corner lot · ~61 ft frontage × 139 ft deep, room to set a detached ADU back from the street with a buffer, reads as a separate home. A second street frontage lets an ADU take its own entrance and address.

Screening heuristic based on lot size, existing coverage, lot orientation, and hazard overlays. CA ADU law is ministerial statewide; verify max size, setbacks, and JADU owner-occupancy with the local planning dept.

Proforma ROI Calculator

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

Median of 3 recent single-family sales in San Jose (95124): $1,150/sqft. Sized within 25% of the 5,300 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.
