theFrontSteps – San Francisco

Check it out! As Realtors, we get a nifty little report (Advantage Online) sent to us from the very San Francisco Association of Realtors we sometimes criticize. (Hey! We’re allowed to vent.) And like countless other real estate blogs in SF, we bring some of the data to you. Well, SFAR has teamed up with [...]

Check out this recent post on theFrontSteps.ORG: “Coming Soon – Oceanview Pig Sty!” by the newest member, Nancy Corsaut. Perhaps a quote is in order: Then, it happens, the agent points to the pig and then starts screaming with a foreign accent, “piggy going poop, piggy going poop, no piggy, no piggy!” As the owner [...]

Nestled into, or perched atop (it’s all perspective), one of the most prestigious hills in San Francisco (we’d almost go so far as to say the world), 2950 Vallejo appears to be coming soon…for $25,000,000. From our reader: One of my absolutely favorite houses is hitting the market. You probably already know this, but I [...]

Some of you may remember a pocket listing I had on Lake Street, which we never received any offers on. Tons of interest, but no offers. Well, it turns out the owners are totally raking me over the coals and officially listing it with another agent. Rather than crying about it (okay, maybe I am [...]

This is not the first, and likely not the last we’ve seen of these, but now you get to see them too! “Sorry for the SPAM, but I am working with a GREAT couple who is looking for a home, and wanted to see if you knew of a property that is not yet on [...]

Coming Soon (1460-68 Broadway @ Polk) From this: To this: These TIC units at 1460-68 Broadway are expected to hit the market this weekend. We’re still waiting to hear back from the developer on pricing and details. For now, imagine how much better your food will taste cooked in the new kitchen as opposed to [...]

From sfnewsletter. Jackson Pacific Ventures has secured financing for One Hawthorne, a 24-story, 165-unit luxury condominium project located at 645 Howard (think Thirsty Bear, W Hotel, MOMA, Yerba Buena, that area), and ground breaking is expected for this month.

As we reported not too long ago, Chelsea Park, a new development located in Mission Dolores at 3620 19th Street and 29 Oakwood is coming soon…as in this weekend. We’re happy to tell you, we have a tiny bit more information for you. [Bloomsbury floor plan pictured. Image courtesy of chelseaparksf.com] Of the 39 units [...]

Having just been interviewed by a new publication in town, “The Registry”, we thought we’d pass the information along to all of you real estate obsessed readers out there, that there is, in fact, yet another avenue for you to get your fix. Look for us in the February issue…or maybe January, if we make [...]

Not that other pocket listings aren’t worthy, but we have this in the Marketplace now, so we thought we’d let you know it is there. It is not in MLS, so feel free to pass this around. The raw stats: 6 bedrooms 3.5 bath 3000 square feet (per seller) Lake @ 21st. Remodeled 2 car [...]
