Inside the build

Yields calibrated to active OC ADU work.

Avorino's in-house team underwrites investor pro formas against the same projects we're actively building. Default rents, vacancy ranges, and turnover assumptions come from real OC ADU data — not stock estimates.

  • $245K–$440K+ detached · $200K–$350K+ attached · $135K–$220K+ Junior ADU · $85K–$170K+ garage
  • $2.5K–$4.5K+ projected monthly OC rental range
  • 5–12% annual ROI / 8–15+ year break-even
  • Hold-and-rent vs build-and-sell modeled side-by-side

Spec custom homesConcept only · cutaway walls lowered to reveal the layout

01 Spec custom homes

Ground-up custom homes built to current OC market preferences for resale at completion. We help underwrite the spec to actual finished comps.

02 Lot development

Acquire raw lot, entitle, build, sell. Avorino handles the construction; you carry the capital stack.

03 Multi-unit residential

Small multi-family where OC zoning allows. ADU stacking on existing single-family lots.

04 Build-to-rent ADU

Detached / attached ADUs underwritten for short-term and mid-term rental yield rather than owner-occupant resale.

01 / Returns and pricing

What kind of returns do ADUs generate in Orange County?

Typical OC ADU rents run $2,500–$4,500+/mo depending on size and submarket (Newport Beach and Irvine top the range; inland cities cluster $2,500–$3,200+). Build costs of $200K–$400K yield gross cap-rates of 7–11% before financing.

How does Avorino price investor builds vs. owner-occupant builds?

Same fixed-price design-build model with cap-rate underwriting baked in. We start from the rent or sale comp, work back to a buildable budget, and bid to that. Investor proposals include yield-map worksheets and milestone draws aligned to lender requirements.

02 / What we build for investors

Do you build for spec or investor portfolios, not just owner-occupants?

Yes. Avorino delivers build-to-rent ADUs, spec custom homes, SB-9 lot-split work, and 2–4-unit residential for investors. We're set up to bid, schedule, and warranty for investor expectations: line-item budgets, cap-rate math, milestone draws.

Can you handle an SB-9 lot split plus dual-build?

Yes. Avorino runs SB-9 urban-lot-split applications through OC city planning departments, then builds the dual residences as a single coordinated schedule. We've executed this pattern in Anaheim, Costa Mesa, and Garden Grove.
