San Francisco median home price hits $1 million

Source: San Francisco Chronicle

With April’s close, the city was left with a new benchmark for San Francisco median home prices: single-family homes, according to the Business Journal, hit a median of $1 million dollars, a price not seen since the glory days of 2007 and a 32% jump from 2012. Further, Redfin data show that in mid-May, the median sold price was $1,030,000. That’s the sold price, readers; the list price median was a comparatively modest $799K, a fact that speaks to the power of too many buyers vying for too few properties.

The 2 bedroom, 1 bath home on Romain in SF’s Twin Peaks area (lists for $995K, pretty close to the $1M mark. The square footage is not listed but two interesting facts about its history are: in 2008 it sold for $899K. In 1998, it sold at auction for just $106.5K.
