Data geography and coverage

The report uses Redfin’s Pacific Heights geography, which can differ from the city atlas. Houses, condos, co-ops and other ownership types should be compared separately. Detailed price and sale-to-list tables identify September 2026 despite an October page title. Undated price-per-square-foot figures are omitted.

FOLLOW THE MONTHLY REPORT

What changed since our last report?

Verified monthly tracking began with September 2026. This is the first recorded period, so there is no previous report period to compare yet.

The next verified period will add changes in price, selling time and sale-to-list ratio here. Year-over-year changes above are a separate comparison.

What this means for your next move.

If you’re buying

Sales averaged above asking, so prepare the financing and disclosure review before choosing an offer. Separate house, condo and co-op comparables, then value outlook and garage rights.

If you’re selling

The 14-day median is a planning reference, not a deadline for your listing. Support the view premium with similarly oriented sales and a documented capital-work plan. Choose an asking strategy from the property’s comparables rather than assume the neighborhood percentage applies to every home.

SAN FRANCISCO REAL ESTATE COMPANY PERSPECTIVE

The property behind the numbers.

Local context checked . Commentary is our interpretation, not a valuation or forecast.

Walk the Alta Plaza slope before valuing the address.

Local evidence: Alta Plaza is a terraced hillside park at Jackson and Steiner. The city lists its children’s play area as closed for renovation through late December.

Our view: A park-facing address, a Fillmore-side flat and a hilltop house deliver different routines. Walk from the actual front door and back. Check the current park work before relying on a playground routine; then price the usable outlook and access from matched sales.

Building costs and investment considerations

Make the Pacific Heights capital plan visible.

Condominium, co-op and house ownership carry different building and maintenance obligations. Neighborhood transaction medians do not identify those costs.

Review roof, exterior, windows, elevator obligations and insurance alongside the garage right. For a house, examine permitted work and the maintenance reserve. The finishes should be supported by records before their premium enters the offer.

Reporting periods, checks and limitations

Price and selling metrics use rolling three-month windows. Adjacent periods overlap. Sales counts carry their own explicitly stated period and are not assumed to be the rolling median’s sample. A reported sales count below 20 receives an editorial small-count flag; this is a reading aid, not a statistical confidence threshold.

Refresh policy: check the day after Redfin’s monthly Housing Market Tracker release and publish once a newer neighborhood period is verified. Delays retain the last verified period. A calendar date is not evidence that neighborhood data changed.

Initial comparison bars may include approximate prior-year values calculated from reported year-over-year changes. A line chart requires at least three consecutive verified monthly observations for the selected metric and uses reported points only. Missing months are not filled.

All Home Types mixes ownership and property types. A neighborhood median is not an appraisal, a same-home return or a forecast. Local sources do not establish a measured rent or resale premium. Zillow is an independent modeled index and is never averaged with Redfin’s transaction median.
