Evaluate properties by what they can produce, not just what they cost.

ADU potential, income projection, hold-or-sell analysis. We help investors and property holders make decisions with numbers, not guesswork.

Investment situations we specialize in

I want to buy a property that can generate rental income, but I don't want a duplex.

Single-family homes with ADU potential, basement conversions, or detached structures can produce income that listings never mention. We find and score these opportunities.

Should I hold this property or sell it?

Not every inherited or transitional property needs to be sold. Some have meaningful income potential through conversion, rental, or long-term hold strategies. We help you evaluate the numbers.

I think there's ADU potential on my property. How do I find out?

Zoning, setbacks, utility access, construction cost, and income projection. We evaluate whether the conversion makes financial sense before you spend a dollar on design.

The analysis behind every investment decision

Hold vs. Sell Analysis

Current market value, rental income potential, appreciation trajectory, tax implications. We lay out both paths so you can compare them side by side with real numbers.

ADU & Conversion Feasibility

Zoning verification, setback requirements, utility access, construction cost estimates. We determine whether the project is physically and financially viable before you commit.

Income Projection

Rental market analysis, expected monthly income, operating costs, ROI timeline. We build the financial picture so you know what the property can actually produce.

How we evaluate investment opportunities

1

Tell us your situation

Are you buying, holding, or deciding? What's the property, what's the goal, and what does your timeline look like? We start with context, not assumptions.

2

We evaluate the property

Zoning, structural capability, conversion potential, rental market, income projection, and capability scores. We look at what the property can do, not just what it looks like on paper.

3

You get clarity on your options

Hold, sell, or reposition. Each option comes with numbers, rationale, and a clear picture of what the path looks like. You decide what makes sense for your situation.

Property situations that require more than a listing

Inherited Property with Income Potential

A family inherits a home and assumes they should sell. But the property has a detached garage that could convert to an ADU, or a basement suite that could generate rental income. We evaluate the hold scenario so the family can make an informed decision.

Single-Family with ADU Feasibility

You're looking at single-family homes, but you want one that can produce income. We verify ADU zoning, estimate construction costs, project rental income, and score the property on conversion feasibility before you make an offer.

Under-Interpreted Listings

Properties sitting on the market because the listing describes features, not income potential. A "4 bed, 3 bath with finished basement" might actually be a property with a self-contained lower-level unit and rental income capability. We find these opportunities.

Portfolio Hold-or-Sell Decision

You own a property and need to decide whether to keep it, convert it, or exit. Market timing, rental demand, conversion costs, appreciation trajectory. We build the analysis so you can compare your options with real numbers.
