With the home already remodeled, the optimal play is stealth density: primary + ADU + JADU to maximize rental yield rather than a costly rebuild. Liquefaction hazard acts as a minor blocker, increasing seismic construction costs. Low owner-occupancy in the block group indicates a strong local tenant market for added units.
