Market Analysis

San Francisco's real estate market in July 2023 witnessed significant shifts, primarily characterized by declining prices and sales numbers. Let's break down these trends:


Single-Family Homes: When we dissect the numbers for single-family homes, we observe a clear downward trajectory. The median sales price came in at $1,450,000 in July 2023, marking an 8.8% decrease from June's $1,590,000. A year-over-year comparison paints an even starker contrast, with a 13.2% drop from July 2022's $1,670,000. The average sales prices follow a similar pattern, down 8.7% from June 2023 and a notable 12% drop compared to July 2022.


Condo Sales: The condominium sector isn't insulated from this trend either. Condo sales registered an average price of $1,222,515 in July 2023, which is a decrease from June's $1,260,762. The year-over-year difference is more pronounced, with a 17.1% dip from July 2022's $1,475,078.


The sales price to list price ratio presents an interesting narrative. For single-family homes, it stood at 105.2% in July, suggesting that buyers were willing to pay marginally above the asking price, possibly due to competitive bids or perceived value in select properties. On the flip side, the condo market witnessed a dip in this metric to 99.4%, hinting at a slight buyer advantage where negotiations may have tilted in their favor.


In terms of property movement, the average days on market showed some stability for homes, consistently staying at 25 days. However, condos experienced a slowdown with an average listing duration of 53 days, an increase from June's 50 days and July 2022's 48 days.



Momentum Statistics

The momentum in the San Francisco real estate market offers insights into underlying trends and potential future movements:


Sales Momentum: A nuanced look into sales momentum reveals differing patterns between homes and condos. For homes, the momentum rose from -43.8 to -42.2, indicating a slight resurgence or stability. In contrast, condos faced a downturn, with momentum decreasing by 1.4 points to -65.7.


Pricing Momentum: Prices play a pivotal role in gauging market health. For single-family homes, pricing momentum took a downward turn, falling by 0.5 points to -18. This suggests a continuing softening of prices or increasing buyer resistance at current price levels. Condos followed suit with a 0.5-point decline to -9.9, reflecting a possibly slower but consistent decrease in price acceptability.


It's essential to note that these momentum statistics are calculated based on a 12-month moving average. This method helps in ironing out short-term fluctuations, offering a clearer and more consistent view of long-term trends, free from monthly anomalies or seasonal variations.

San Francisco's Proposed Housing Element Zoning Program San Francisco is taking steps to address its housing affordability crisis through the Housing Element Zoning Program. This initiative is part of the city's broader Housing for All initiative and aims to increase housing density, particularly along transit and commercial corridors. Key Features of the Housing Element Zoning Program The program seeks to meet the state-mandated requirement of planning for approximately 36,000 additional housing units by 2031. To achieve this, the program focuses on: Increased Density: Allowing more housing types in neighborhoods with access to economic opportunities and services. Accessibility: Ensuring new developments are well-connected to public transportation to reduce vehicle reliance and emissions. Community Considerations: Protecting communities at risk of displacement and coordinating new development with infrastructure and services. The Final Proposed Zoning Map After extensive community input, the final proposed zoning map emphasizes changes along major transit routes and commercial streets. The map includes higher heights at key intersections, additional Neighborhood Commercial parcels for increased density, and adjustments based on feedback from the community and local officials.
