- Comp basis: nearby proven-operator anchor pool.

- Apple-to-apple headline pool — ocean-view proven operators first (subject has confirmed ocean view). · Apple-to-apple headline pool — non-beachfront proven operators only (subject is not walk-to-beach or beachfront). · Apple-to-apple headline pool — inland ocean-view comps first (subject is inland with view).

Calculation walkthrough
- 1Per-comp scaleraw TTM × bed scale × location descale × operator descaleBed scale bridges ±1BR comps to subject size. Location/luxury descale removes product premiums the subject lacks. Operator descale strips elite track-record lift (4.9★+ / deep reviews) — for-sale buyers start unproven.
- 2Comp weight60% map distance · 40% bedroom matchCloser same-bed comps rank higher; view/walk/luxury/operator descale applied separately.

§8
Reconciliation
- Headline revenue uses the Low indication from the weighted blend — low and high bracket the adjusted comp range.
- Largest driver: Casa Coroico - Infinity Pool + BBQ + Sunset View… (37.7% of weighted blend).
- 3 of 3 headline comps carry bed, luxury, location, or operator descale before weighting.
Map pick (single estimate)
- We rank every feasible bed × finish tier at this pin and publish the best defensible gross yield on all-in cost.
- This lot: 4BR standard · Low indication revenue ~$49k/yr ÷ $1.1M all-in → ~4.3% gross.
- That pick drives map cards, rank, and the cached block at the top of the build pro forma — not the stress-test rows for other bedroom counts.
All-in cost (denominator)
- Land (asking) + construction at ~$1,000/m² Standard (in-house) × villa m² + pool/site works (~$45,000) + FF&E + ~18% soft costs.
- Typical Gold Coast contractor quotes run $1,200–2,400/m² — our rate is the operator's in-house crew, not a market quote.
- Standard tier: pool, A/C, and patio are in the baseline — not double-counted as upgrades.
Value on completion & build-vs-buy
- Uses the same Low indication revenue as gross yield — not a higher median band.
- NOI = our estimate revenue × (1 − 40% operating expenses).
- Stabilized value = NOI ÷ 10% cap rate.
- Build-vs-buy equity = that value minus all-in cost (land + build + recipe).
What we excluded or flagged
- Few or scattered nearby rentals behind this build scenario — lower confidence.
- Recipe gaps vs local winners: Gym / fitness, Hot tub, BBQ / grill.
- The “What to build here” table stress-tests other bedroom counts at your selected finish tier using the same comp radius but without re-running the full recipe engine — expect lower numbers on thin 2BR pools.
§9
Limiting conditions
- —Broker asking price and listing copy — not verified sale or operating statements.
- —STR revenue from AirROI trailing-twelve-months; forward seasonality not projected separately.
- —Gallery vision segment is photo-based; finish gaps may lag physical inspection.
- —Coordinates approximate when broker omits parcel pin — headline withheld.
- —Gross yield excludes capex, furnishing, management, tax, and financing.
