San Francisco Real Estate Market Update – June 2018

While May’s single-family homes market in San Francisco was more of the same so far in 2018: fewer new listings and sales, and rising interest rates and sold prices, it marked the third straight month of a lower median sold price, And yet the median price is still up 9.8% compared to May 2017.
