Key Findings

  1. The primary indicator of market value is the median sold price, 2,226,000, which signals recent transaction-level strength and should be the anchor for appraisals and offer strategy in this neighborhood.

  2. There is a notable gap between the median listing price (1,495,000) and the median sold price, which may indicate pricing friction between seller expectations and closed transactions; sellers should align pricing to the representative recent sale to avoid extended time on market. moderate pricing friction

  3. The median days on market is 372, which suggests slower sales velocity despite high transaction prices; agents and sellers should plan for longer marketing periods and staged pricing strategies rather than expecting quick turnarounds. slower sales velocity

  4. Market context is positive for price appreciation—price year-over-year trend is up and market temperature is hot—while rent year-over-year trend is up and interest rate pressure is elevated (30-year fixed rates averaging 6.5% locally); investors should weigh rising rents and price momentum against higher financing costs when modeling returns. up

Current Mortgage Rate Context

Market-level mortgage rate comparison for this area:

Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates in the San Francisco 94114 market average 6.5%, reflecting a stable interest rate environment for property owners compared to earlier 2026 benchmarks.

Note: Interest rate comparisons provide market context. The existing "Interest Rate Pressure" metric above shows the qualitative market impact.


Key Findings

  1. The neighborhood's primary market value indicator is the median sold price $1,329,000, which reflects recent transaction activity and is consistent with a market described as hot and a up price trend.

  2. The median listing price $1,195,000 is lower than the median sold price $1,329,000, which may indicate pricing friction where seller asking strategies and final transaction levels diverge; monitor for continued convergence before relying on listing prices as a valuation proxy.

  3. Sales velocity appears slow on a time-to-sale basis: the median days on market 457 suggests longer listing durations despite a hot market temperature and relatively constrained active supply, which may indicate selective buyer activity or higher buyer qualification thresholds.

  4. Rental and financing context: the median market rent $4,700 is rising (up) alongside prices, while interest rate pressure remains elevated with current 30-year fixed mortgage rates averaging 6.5%—this combination supports strong rent growth but may temper immediate buyer affordability and transaction breadth.
