Redfin Outer Richmond · rolling three months ending September 2026. Rounded source values stay rounded. View source ↗

The trend behind the headline.
Rolling three-month periods. Dashed segments compare endpoints across unobserved months, not a measured monthly path. Approximate prior-year points are derived from Redfin’s rounded year-over-year change.
| Period ending | Value | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| September 2025 | ≈ 854 | Derived from YoY change |
| September 2026 | 1,180 | Redfin reported (rounded) |
Snapshot history begins with September 2026 and grows with verified updates. Missing observations are never filled with invented values. A neighborhood median does not track the same homes over time.
88.4% of sales were above list in the source snapshot. Asking prices reflect a listing strategy, so a premium to list is not automatically a premium to fair value.
San Francisco Real Estate Company Perspective
Our analytical view · Not a valuation or forecast
Local context checked . Market figures use the report period above. Local sources do not measure an amenity’s effect on prices or rents.
Outer Richmond’s rising price per foot is a question for the comps.
Local evidence: The Redfin transaction median is up 20% year over year. Price per square foot is up 38.1% year over year. The snapshot reports 14 median days on market. The sale-to-list ratio is 123%. These are All Home Types figures; the competition score has its own window.
Our view: A higher neighborhood figure can reflect both market conditions and the types of homes that sold. Select comparable ownership, legal size, condition and avenue before interpreting it as appreciation for the subject property. We would complete the building review before bidding in a short marketing window. Conflicting source changes in days on market are omitted, so the current pace is not presented as a verified year-over-year change.

Measure the Geary Rapid connection from the actual avenue.
Local evidence: SFMTA lists 38R stops at Geary and 25th, 33rd, 36th, 39th, 42nd and 45th, plus 48th and Point Lobos. The published route connects to Transit Center Bus Plaza. Stop proximity is not a verified door-to-work commute time.
Our view: The official stop list is useful, but stop spacing, crossings and the walk from the building can change the trip substantially. Compare that route with Balboa dining and the Anza library, then test the journeys at the times they will be used. For an investor, underwrite achieved rents on comparable blocks before paying for an assumed rapid-transit or retail-access premium.

An Outer Richmond investment should work before redevelopment.
Local evidence: San Francisco Public Library lists Anza Branch at 550 37th Avenue. The Laundromat’s official address is 3725 Balboa Street, while Pearl is on California Street. Compare the walks and crossings from the home rather than assigning one neighborhood-wide convenience premium.
Our view: Start with current lawful leases and itemized taxes, insurance, management, maintenance and capital needs. Public permit records can identify questions, but do not establish an entitlement or the condition of the building. Any expansion or conversion should have its own feasibility and cost scenario. We would test the existing asset under conservative income and a flat-price exit before paying for unapproved additional units.

Tour California, Geary and Balboa as separate corridors.
Pearl 6101 on California and The Laundromat on Balboa are different food-and-drink stops. Rochambeau Playground and Anza library provide additional routes to test from the home. Compare crossings, the walk to a rapid stop and the return after dinner. A home nearer one corridor may serve a different routine from a property nearer another, even when the listings use the same neighborhood name.
Geary Rapid access varies by the actual avenue.
SFMTA lists 38R stops at Geary and 25th, 33rd, 36th, 39th, 42nd and 45th, plus 48th and Point Lobos. The published route connects to Transit Center Bus Plaza. Stop proximity is not a verified door-to-work commute time.
Price the house, the flat and the rent roll separately.
An owner-occupied house, a condo or TIC flat, and a tenant-occupied building need different financing and comparable-sales sets. Verify legal area, parking and outdoor rights and check permit records for changes to the original layout. Inspect roof, exterior and building systems and include immediate work in the budget. We would not multiply a neighborhood price per foot by every unit’s area to value a whole income property.
Research the neighborhood from the source.

San Francisco weather context.
Put Outer Richmond visits in context with city rainfall and regional sky conditions. Check the actual home in morning and afternoon light.
Rainfall and temperatures come from NOAA’s San Francisco Downtown station. Fog and sky conditions come from SFO and are regional context only. Neither station measures the featured neighborhood’s block-by-block microclimate; airport fog days are not neighborhood fog days.

Sources, definitions and limits +
- Rainfall and temperature source: NOAA NCEI San Francisco Downtown, USW00023272 ↗, at 37.7705, −122.4269. These are city station readings, not measurements at an individual home. We sum the daily precipitation records and count days with at least 0.01 inches. The precipitation variable includes any liquid-equivalent frozen precipitation.
- Daily values retain NOAA’s station observation dates. An observation day can end at a station’s reporting time; we do not relabel it as a midnight-to-midnight Pacific measurement. Trace precipitation is marked “Trace.” Missing or quality-flagged precipitation rejects a monthly update; incomplete temperatures remain unavailable.
- Fog and sky source: National Weather Service CLMSFO, archived by Iowa Environmental Mesonet ↗. The source’s fog, fair, partly cloudy and cloudy counts are kept as reported. Fog can occur during part of a fair-weather day, so fog is not an additional mutually exclusive sky category. We do not convert fair days to measured sunshine hours or add them to fog counts.
- These are free public weather records. Our summary and chart are independent of NOAA and Iowa State University. No affiliation or endorsement is implied. NOAA usage information ↗ · IEM usage information ↗.
- Weather periods and source timestamps are separate from the rolling Redfin market window. Monthly updates retain the previous verified month if either source is delayed. These stations cannot establish a specific home’s sunlight, fog, moisture condition or investment return.
Sources, timing, and what to watch.
Redfin neighborhood metrics use rolling three-month windows. Adjacent periods overlap. Small samples and the mix of properties sold can move medians sharply. All home types is not a condo-only or multifamily investment series. The competition score uses its own stated window.
Refresh policy: the day after Redfin’s monthly Housing Market Tracker release, once a newer neighborhood period is verified. Source delays retain the previous report. An unavailable release timestamp is left blank; the calendar is not evidence that a neighborhood has updated.
Initial trend comparisons use the reported year-over-year change to derive approximate prior-year endpoints, not a downloaded monthly history. Verified monthly snapshots accumulate over time. Source revisions can change a previously reported figure.
