Margin is vs. investing the same money in the S&P 500; the S&P breakeven is the yearly stock return that would tie it, and the crash floor is the yearly appreciation below which the deal loses. Wealth at year 10 counts home equity at full value; the sold line subtracts selling costs. ## Property facts Asking price $899,000 Units 1 Beds / baths 2 / 1 Square feet 793 Year built 1906 Property type Single Family Days on market 51 Neighborhood Noe Valley (north) / 24th St corridor Strategy lane whole-house-after-move-out (2bd sits below the 3bd room-by-room floor and no separable in-law is cited → no Phase-1 hack income, live-in rent: 0; TIC-dressed-as-SFH tenure flag routed to gate) Nearest catalyst Castro Muni Metro Station (0.76 mi) Modeled appreciation 3.5%/yr Unit count: unverified No source we checked states how many rentable units this building has.

History replay Years Ends vs the never-buy path Worst window 1989→1999 −$1,171,043 Median window 1991→2001 −$35,040 Best window 1996→2006 +$1,456,746 21 of the 41 windows ended behind the never-buy path. Replay the 2001 downturn as it hit this area and the deal ends year 10 $596,484 behind the never-buy path; the deepest point comes in year 8, $676,703 behind. The replay holds rent growth to the local legal cap the whole way down. These windows track San Francisco County as a whole. Within the county, individual ZIPs' realized 10-year outcomes typically differed from the county's by about ±0.6 points/yr — one zip-decade in ten differed by ±1.8 points/yr or more, and the largest gap since 1975 was 7.4 points/yr. A specific building varies more than its ZIP, not less. ## Where these numbers come from Of the 12 inputs behind this analysis, 2 trace to evidence (our listing feed, area comps, county records); 3 are standing conventions; 4 are derived from other inputs; 1 rests on the fewest units the evidence allows. - **Purchase price**: an unclassified source · no independent witness - **Rent while you live in one unit**: a standing area-research rule · single source - **Rent after you move out**: derived from other inputs here · single source - **The rent you would pay on the never-buy path**: derived from other inputs here · single source - **Property tax rate**: an unclassified source · no independent witness - **Unit count**: the fewest units the evidence allows · no independent witness A standing convention is a deliberate modeling choice we apply to every deal. We flag it rather than dress it up as evidence. ## Order the verified underwrite This page is our automated underwriting.
