Sunnyvale didn’t stumble into success—it engineered it. From orchards and rail spurs to Moffett Field, Lockheed, AMD, and today’s AI-era campuses, each wave compounded the last, concentrating talent, capital, and opportunity at the very center of Silicon Valley.

For buyers, the play is precision—verify attendance lines, act early/off-market, and price the “education premium” like a long-horizon asset. For sellers, strategic prep and narrative marketing around architectural DNA (Eichler, Bahl, Gavello) unlock measurable upside.
