How do you get a developer, or investor in San Francisco to begin frothing at the mouth? You use these words: “Russian Hill; Two buildings; Two units each; VACANT with no eviction history; 7 garages…” The rest is fluff. 805-817 Lombard, $2,750,000, hit the market June 15, pending already. –3130 Pacific: Priced to sell at … Continue reading Real Estate Keywords (805-817 Lombard)

colors, coLORS, COLORS! (85 Cerritos)
We’re not sure what is worse. The carpet? The fireplace and matching wall coloring? Or the oddly shiny, new/modern Washer/Dryer in this antiquy home? Maybe it is that all three are under the same roof and supposed to go together. No matter…it went into contract after a couple weeks on the market, so we’re guessing … Continue reading colors, coLORS, COLORS! (85 Cerritos)
“boomtime” on 1771 Northpoint…an update
We won’t even come close to taking credit for this catch. All credit goes to “boomtime”, who, if he/she would like, definitely has a seat at the Stammtisch. “1771 North Point is in contract after 2 weeks on the market for public showing! Wagers? I guess $4.65 mil.”[asking $4,995,000] –MLS Statement –1771 North Point, a … Continue reading “boomtime” on 1771 Northpoint…an update
Done deal in Pacific Heights for 2243-“A” Green
“boom” commented not too long ago in one of our posts about 3130 Pacific (priced to sell at $12,495,000): “Anybody know about 2243 “A” Green St asking $1.395 mil?” First open was last Sunday, and now it’s not on MLS anymore?” [This is a 3 bed, 2 bath, 1546 square foot condo with booming views … Continue reading Done deal in Pacific Heights for 2243-“A” Green
3130 Pacific, priced to sell at $12,495,000.00, and almost sold
We almost can’t keep up with some of the brisk sales we’re seeing. 3130 Pacific is “pending”, after 7 days in MLS. Remember 3100 Pacific (next door), the $15,000,000 home that never made it to MLS, received two offers and is sold. A quick explanation of “pending”. In MLS, and real estate in general, there … Continue reading 3130 Pacific, priced to sell at $12,495,000.00, and almost sold
1326-28 15th Avenue: A Done Deal in the Inner Sunset
We showed it to you first, and before and after, then we bet on it, and now it’s closed…1326-28 15th Avenue is a done deal, and none of our readers guessed the sales price. In fact, we didn’t even come close, either. It might not actually be marked sold in MLS yet, but we know … Continue reading 1326-28 15th Avenue: A Done Deal in the Inner Sunset
3130 Pacific, Priced to sell at $12,495,000
[Update 7/12/07…SOLD…$14,000,000!!] Since its neighbor at 3100 Pacific was asking $15,000,000, received 2 offers and just closed escrow for a price we’re not disclosing, it is only fitting the other newest new home in Pacific Heights, 3130 Pacific right next door, should come on the market too (hit MLS). It is asking a bit less than 3100 Pacific, and … Continue reading 3130 Pacific, Priced to sell at $12,495,000
218 Cole: Damnit! It happened Again
Recently, I wrote an offer for some clients on 256 Page, and if you click that link, you’ll see we got completely blown out of the water. Well, we just wrote another offer on 218 Cole, and again got blown out of the water. Here’s the story: The property is a nice…nothing stellar…3 bed, 1 … Continue reading 218 Cole: Damnit!

733 Front Street, A Walkthrough, Details, and Opinion

In a nutshell, 733 Front goes down as one of my favorite new developments for many reasons. The biggest being the use of the … Continue reading 733 Front Street, A Walkthrough, Details, and Opinion
4065 25th Street: An Update
Normally, we don’t update all the properties we feature, because…well, honestly, we lose track. But when we post about a property (sweet before/after pics there) and several other blogs then post about it too, and the chatter is so negative about it not selling for this, not worth that, bad bathroom this, dark kitchen that… … Continue reading 4065 25th Street: An Update

It’s Madness! (no, not the band)
By now you’ve probably heard about 3840 Clay (pictured above), the Pacific Heights fixer that was asking $3,000,000 and sold for $4,020,000 in less than a blink of an eye. (In MLS on 4/12, 30 disclosure packages were handed out, offers reviewed on 4/16, in contract 4/19, sold 4/25… we’re told for cash.) The home … Continue reading It’s Madness! (no, not the band)
Hurry up…and wait
2214 Clay…one day showing…one offer…rumored to be going over asking (go figure) from a $4,998,000 asking price…now we wait to see the outcome. The vitals: 6 bed; 5 bath; 4989 square feet; built in 1890; $1001/ppsf; horrible colors in the living room, and definitely not my tastes for interior decorating (opinion!), but other than that it is … Continue reading Hurry up…and wait
