Rental Market

Note: The relationship between property values and rental rates reflects different market dynamics. Higher-priced properties may have lower rental yields due to factors such as luxury market positioning, owner-occupancy preferences, or long-term appreciation strategies rather than immediate rental income maximization.

Property Taxes

Liquidity & Velocity

Note: A Sale-to-List Ratio near 100% can occur when properties sell at or near their final listing price after price adjustments during the listing period, even when initial listing prices differ significantly from sale prices.

Market Trends & Context

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: 3,221,000 — this level, combined with the reported market temperature as hot, suggests recent transactions are occurring at elevated price points rather than being driven by asking-price volatility.
2. Liquidity appears mixed: a median days on market of 1,260 indicates notably slower sales velocity for recorded transactions, which may reflect pricing friction or a limited set of comparable closings despite the broader up price trend.
3. Price efficiency is strong where transactions occur: the median price per square foot is 1,446 while rental strength is reflected by a median market rent of 4,495, indicating robust rent levels relative to local price points and supporting rent-upside for investors focused on condominium and SFR product.
4. Financing and macro sensitivity are a caution: interest rate pressure is reported as elevated, and Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates in San Francisco are averaging 6.49%, which is 0.21% lower than the 6.70% average rate for typical loans originated in this market earlier in 2026 — this dynamic may temper buyer capacity even as prices remain up.
