AddressIntel AI Briefing

Though the massive 9,148 sqft lot offers development potential, the high asking price and updated 1954 structure limit full teardown viability. The optimal play here is stealth density: primary + ADU + JADU, preserving the updated existing structure to maximize cash flow without triggering high ground-up construction costs. Excellent hazard profile with zero hazard zones further supports this lower-risk path.

Proforma ROI Calculator

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

Zoning allows roughly 3,600 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 8 recent single-family sales in Sunnyvale (94086): $1,113/sqft. Sized within 25% of the 3,600 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.
