San Francisco
Property with an ADU or multiple residential units
When an estate property includes an ADU, guest unit, duplex-style use, or other additional residential space that affects its utility.
Additional living units can raise questions about permitted status, physical layout, rental use, separate access, and how buyers viewed the configuration.
San Francisco estates frequently involve long-held homes, condominiums, two-to-four-unit buildings, tenant-occupied property, altered living areas, and properties with highly specific neighborhood appeal.
The appraisal scope should identify what is known about the units and analyze the property as the market recognized it on the relevant date.
