In another sign of the times at the high end, 2820 Pacific closes escrow with that damn little asterisk next to the price $16,000,000 (*), which can only tell us the sales price was close. Not too close to the original $17,500,000 asking, but up there nonetheless. Like we said, we would have taken it … Continue reading We would have taken it for the garage (2820 Pacific: a done deal ~$16M)

Done Deal in Presidio Heights: 327 Locust
We’re putting 327 Locust (3 bed, 2 bath SFR condo (oops!) asking $1,798,000 selling $2,025,000) up per reader request. We acknowledge this sale closed 10/31/2007 and we are now in the beginning of 2008. The market has changed since then, but an eye-catching sale nonetheless.

Hip Hip Hooray!…and $300,000 over (4924 17th)
We know, we know…stop cheerleading, it doesn’t serve us well. It really doesn’t indicate any sort of bearing as to our real estate market. It’s just rubbish. It only happens on the high end, but it happens, and you need to know about it. 4924 17th St. asking $3,600,000, selling $3,900,000.

Reduce and Sell, Reduce and Sell (411 Banks in Bernal)
Even if the market has cooled, and properties are seeing price reductions, they are still selling. There is a technique to employ that usually leads to the same outcome: Reduce, and Sell, and we might add, don’t panic. Case in point, 411 Banks, a two bed, one bath, 1600 square foot single family home in … Continue reading Reduce and Sell, Reduce and Sell (411 Banks in Bernal)
Two years, two listings, one building, same agent, different market (2185 Bush #311)
I’m going against what I usually do and actually talking about one of my listings. Why? Because there is a good story. Two years ago, I had this listing at 2185 Bush #315. I put this place on the market literally a few weeks prior to the peak we experienced in 2005. It hit MLS, … Continue reading Two years, two listings, one building, same agent, different market (2185 Bush #311)

Our readers are so great, and “San Fran Tim” is on it! As he says, “Just received notice that 318 27th street sold for $2.515, or $220k (or about 10%) over listing.” [You would be correct, SFT.] –Sittin on the deck by the Bay [theFrontSteps]
Done Deal in Outer Parkside (2342 42nd)
What feels like ages ago on April 11th, I wrote about 2342 42nd Avenue: …in August of 2006 this property was listed at $1,095,000, then in March of 2007 listed at $899,000, now it is listed at $1,295,000. If it sells at $1,295,000, I’m packing up and moving to Mexico, because that would be just … Continue reading Done Deal in Outer Parkside (2342 42nd)
1330 Chestnut…a done deal
I can’t believe how many people are asking me about 1330 Chestnut, and I haven’t had time to check (cough…bull shit!)…but it is now sold. Asking $1,495,000 sold $1,550,000 and only spent 15 days (during the mortgage crisis) on the market. Reminder: If you were to receive the sfnewsletter either from me, or your Realtor/Mortgage … Continue reading 1330 Chestnut…a done deal
Stump the Stammtisch: Bernal on Fuego or Hielo?
Being that it is the middle of summer, we’re curious to see what kind of replies we get to this post, but we hope the Stammtisch can come through nonetheless. If they can’t…readers!? “Hi, Over the past few weeks I’ve been seeing a Realtor post on Craig’s List that Bernal Heights is “on Fuego”. For … Continue reading Stump the Stammtisch: Bernal on Fuego or Hielo?
Rico…..Suave
If that is not a suave $1,750,000 kitchen, we don’t know what is. We were asked to post this, so we are. This is a two bed, two bath, Marina District home located at 12 Rico, that came on the market for $1.7M and sold in the blink of an eye for $1.75M in June … Continue reading Rico…..Suave
Shaking things up in the Marina (142 Cervantes, a done deal for $2.36M)
Let’s step aside for a minute, forget about the price and how quickly this property sold, and ask ourselves…what the hell is with this picture and what the hell does it have to do with selling a house? Okay, back to the scoop. 142 Cervantes is a very nice 3 bed, 3 bath, 2260 square … Continue reading Shaking things up in the Marina (142 Cervantes, a done deal for $2.36M)
Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Brutal! (74 Neptune, triple ended)
Adding fuel to an already hot fire of us Realtors making too much “easy money”, I came across this listing in MLS at 74 Neptune in Silver Terrace (yes, it is still San Francisco). Sold in January of 2007 for $498,000, buyer represented by Realtor TZ. “Tastefully renovated” recently, and listed May 2007 for $599,000, … Continue reading Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Brutal!

1771 North Point: A done deal…and no price! :-(
It’s another one of those damn “non-disclosure agreements” that is going to spoil our ability to accurately track sales around the city in real time for homes, and especially trophy properties. Yes indeed, 1771 North Point is scheduled to close escrow tomorrow (July 13th, 2007), and they’re not sharing the price. Oh well…it sold, and … Continue reading 1771 North Point: A done deal…and no price! :-(
