AddressIntel AI Briefing

While the theoretical ARV suggests massive upside, the lack of SB 9 eligibility and unreliable assessor data restrict standard development pathways. The optimal play would be a stealth density: primary + ADU + JADU configuration, but flood zone A and liquefaction hazards pose significant foundation cost blockers. Investors should proceed with caution and focus on a cosmetic renovation to mitigate high site-prep costs.

Proforma ROI Calculator

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

Median of 5 recent multi-family sales in East Palo Alto (94303): $444/sqft, plus 5% because new houses sold at a median 1.07x their comps across 239 real rebuilds. Sized within 25% of the 3,200 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.

Interest on the purchase price for the whole project plus half the build budget, since construction draws ramp up. The default is 7% over 33 months, the median purchase-to-sale time of 239 real Peninsula and South Bay rebuilds. Set the rate to 0 for a cash purchase, or use your own lender's terms.
