AddressIntel AI Briefing

Because SB 9 is blocked by the active flood zone hazard, the optimal play is stealth density: primary + ADU + JADU. Utilizing ministerial ADU pathways allows developers to bypass the split restrictions while adding valuable rental square footage. Designing elevated accessory structures will be critical to mitigate the local flood and liquefaction risks.

Proforma ROI Calculator

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

Zoning allows roughly 2,352 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 Sunnyvale (94085): $1,143/sqft. Sized within 25% of the 2,400 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.
