san francisco victorian row It's taken some time but the San Francisco Association of Realtors is updating the S.F. neighborhood district map! Now, it won't be all inclusive of the approximate 100+ names the locals have given (officially & unofficially) but it's a start! Per SFAR: Newly Added Districts, Carved Out of Existing Districts: • 9G (Yerba Buena), carved out of portions of 9f (SOMA). • 10M (Candlestick Point), carved out of portions of 10K (Bayview Heights). • 10N (Little Hollywood), carved out of portions of … (1 comments)
Today was an amazingly beautiful, sunny, clear day after Friday's big storm cleared through. These dog kids were certainly happy as was I showing fabulous San Francisco real estate with crystal clear views of Marin County and the bay. And this is why in part our real estate is so expensive! We just have to tolerate a fairly small number of wet days mixed in with occasional chilly nights & fog. I'll take it! Hope you had a chance to get out there and enjoy!

Looks like change is underway for FHA loans as the Federal Housing Administration prepares to raise fees this Spring. It doesn't look like an exact date is in place at this time. Currently, the upfront mortgage insurance premium is at 1.75% & will rise to 2.25%. This fee can be rolled into the loan amount. Borrowers with a credit score of less than 580 will be required to come in with a 10% down payment. The 3.5% minimum down payment will still be an option for borrowers with a score of at least 580. Seller credits to buyers … (2 comments)

I thought it would be interesting to see what, if any differences there were between the property types. TICs are a unique S.F. property type with it's own unique financing if one is going the fractional loan route. It turns out that most of the numbers are somewhat similar to the condo/loft data with the exception that the TIC median price went up when compared to the small dip in condo prices and the … (2 comments)
