Premium Over Avg Adjusted
+10.2%
The minimum bid of $2,700,000 represents a 10.2% premium over the average adjusted comparable value. This premium is justified by the property's entitled development rights (approved renovation plans, permitted ADU, JADU potential), which provide immediate value-add opportunities not present in the raw comparable sales. The recommended HBU scenario projects a post-development value of $2,350,000 with three rental units generating $65,119 annual NOI at a 2.68% cap rate.
Value-Add Factors
- • Approved architectural plans (AR22-0795)
- • Permitted 675 SF detached ADU
- • JADU conversion potential (by-right)
- • Three-unit rental income potential
- • Hillside parcel scarcity in Santa Clara County
Risk Factors
- • High Fire Hazard Severity Zone
- • Hillside construction cost premium
- • Property built in 1969 (age-related repairs)
- • Hillside Combining District restrictions
- • Extended renovation timeline (14-20 months)
