Cupertino market considerations
The Cupertino market is influenced by high property values, school appeal, Apple and broader Silicon Valley employment demand, older single-family neighborhoods, condominium and townhome segments, freeway access, commercial corridor influence, hillside and foothill settings in some areas, creek adjacency, park adjacency, and property condition. Because Cupertino values are high and buyer expectations can vary significantly by school, location, property type, and condition, a date of death appraisal may require careful comparable sale selection and market-supported analysis.
