The high asking price relative to the size-matched ARV leaves almost no margin for a classic teardown-and-mansionize play. While a stealth density play using ADUs is feasible, the liquefaction hazard zone and high initial capital requirements heavily compress the developer ROI.

Est. ADU Size1,200 sqft
Existing Coverage22%

Standard lot · ~154 ft frontage × 212 ft deep, typical proportions for a detached ADU behind or beside the home.

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.

FAR Utilization55% of allowed
Buildable Headroom+4,245 sqft

Meaningful unused floor-area headroom under current zoning, room to add square footage. Zoning allows roughly 9,425 sqft of gross floor area on this lot.

Screening estimate comparing existing living area to the city's single-family floor-area limit. City sets no explicit FAR (or is not individually curated); allowable area is a conservative estimate. Source: conservative default (0.40 FAR — city not individually curated) (as of 2026-06-30). Verify FAR, coverage, setbacks, and height with the local planning dept.

Proforma ROI Calculator

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

We don't hold this jurisdiction's floor-area rule, so the default builds to roughly 9,425 sqft from a conservative 0.40 FAR approximation — a starting point, not a zoning answer. Check the local code before you rely on it.

Median of 10 recent single-family sales in Hillsborough (94010): $1,359/sqft. Sized within 25% of the 9,400 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.
