The summer market in San Francisco is heating up—and so is buyer competition. June's data shows a continued trend toward a fast-paced, low-inventory environment.
With less than three months of inventory, San Francisco remains in a seller’s market. This metric tells us how long it would take to sell all current listings if no new homes hit the market. A balanced market typically has 5–6 months of inventory—so at 2.65, the advantage is still with sellers.
Year over year, inventory has dropped sharply. Fewer listings mean buyers are competing for limited options, keeping pressure on prices and speeding up sales timelines.
While homes are spending a little more time on market compared to earlier this year, 44 days is still a brisk pace for a high-demand urban market like SF. Well-priced homes in desirable neighborhoods continue to draw interest quickly.
On average, homes are selling at their asking price. This reflects solid pricing strategies and a competitive buyer pool. Sellers who price appropriately can expect strong results.
SF home values remain strong and steady. This median price represents the midpoint for all homes sold in June and gives both buyers and sellers a clear picture of the current value landscape.
π© Sellers: With inventory shrinking and prices holding, it’s still a great time to list. Expect solid offers and strong buyer interest—especially if your home is market-ready.
π¦ Buyers: You’ll want to be strategic. With fewer listings and quick sales, preparation and expert guidance are key to winning the right home.
