Market Snapshot
The San Francisco condominium market is showing newfound strength in the sales
volume of new and resale condominiums. Median price is at a multi-year high, and both
sides of the market have benefitted from increased sales volume and lower inventory
levels. For the three-month period through April 30, resale volume increased 8.0
percent over the same period last year. During the
same three months, median resale price gained 4.7
percent from the prior year to $659,500.

by steep price discounts. San Francisco has experienced notable
stability in both types of purchases in recent years.
Also, a total of 32.1 percent of buyers in the current three month
period were “absentee,” meaning tax information is sent to an address other than the unit that was purchased. Absentee buyers are
generally thought to be investors or secondPending Sales

conditions reached a peak of 13.2 months in Spring 2009 and a low of 3.8 months in
December 2009, when the $8,000 federal new-homebuyer tax credit expired.
The average market time in the current three-month period was 73 days, a 3.8 percent
decrease from last year. In the current cycle, the days on market measure was highest
in January 2011 at 105 days and lowest in April 2008 at 53 days. The overall market
time reached a plateau between 2008 and 2011, as inventory tightened but sellers
remained resistant to lowering their respective list prices.

Market Overview
NEW DEVELOPMENT TRENDS
The number of new condominiums built since the mid-1990's has been relatively small.
There were just under 11,000 new condominium units completed between 1995 and
2004, equating to an average of 1,100 new units per year over a 10-year period. This, in
addition to the general lack of new home building activity during the 1980’s, caused
pent-up demand and led to increased condominium development when the market
began to heat up in 2002, due to sharply

falling interest rates and easy credit. The
2006-08 period will likely mark the cyclical
4,000
peak in new condominium development, a
3,500
time in which an average of 2,800 units
3,000
were completed annually. The peak year
2,500
was 2007, when 3,550 new units were
2,000
delivered to the market. In stark contrast,
1,500
projections for the years 2012 through
2013 indicate an average of only 340 units
to be completed per year.
