As we reported last week, 2014 was a big year for more “affordable,” outlying neighborhoods in S.F. as homebuyers tried to find homes that fit their budgets in a still-rising market. “The majority of S.F.’s house sales occurred in the neighborhoods running along its western and southern borders, Outer Richmond through Sunset/Parkside and across through Oceanview, Excelsior and Bayview, ” according to Paragon Real Estate’s year-end report. “Generally speaking, these districts are the most affordable areas in the city.”

Bayview on the Rise

But maybe not for long. As buyers race to snap up lower-priced homes in these areas, their values are quickly increasing. Take 2909 Jennings Street in Bayview, which had a big year in 2014. After a foreclosure in 2013, the home (featured in the gallery above) was listed in January 2014 (apparently mid-flip) for $190K and sold in April for $256K. The new buyers finished the flip and put the newly completed 5-bedroom, 3-bath home on the market in October for $649K. On December 3, the home went into contract for the second time this year, though the sale has not yet closed so a final sales price was not available.

“I think Bayview has some real potential to see big gentrification and appreciation,” said Patrick Carlisle, chief market analyst at Paragon. “It’s very inexpensive now by S.F. standards, full of older buildings with great charm, has dramatic views—and the big Shipyard development in Hunter’s Point is going to dramatically change the demographics in the entire area.”

Perhaps because of this perceived upward trajectory, District 10 (Bayview, Excelsior, Portola, Visitacion Valley, Crocker Amazon, Mission Terrace and Silver Terrace) saw 512 or 21% of single-family home sales in 2014, according to Paragon. District 2 (Sunset, Parkside, Golden Gate Heights ) had the second-highest number of sales for the year, with 435 sales or 18% of the total. Meanwhile, tonier districts like District 7 (Pacific Heights, Presidio Heights, Cow Hollow, the Marina) has only 120 single-family home sales, though these tended to represent some of the largest single-family sales of 2014.

Top Neighborhoods for Condos

Condo buyers, on the other hand, were largely drawn to the brand-new and pretty pricy developments in South Beach, SoMa, Yerba Buena and Mission Bay. “The greater South Beach-SoMa-Mission Bay district, which wasn’t even a residential area 25 years ago, now dominates condo sales in the city,” says Paragon. There were 776 sales in these neighborhoods in 2014, or 25% of all condo, co-op and TICs sales in the city, and these figures don’t even include the hundreds of new condo sales that were under contract but still had not closed at year’s end.

267 of those sales took place at Arden, a new Mission Bay condo development which will be ready for occupancy in fall 2015, according to Bemi Jauhal, director of sales and marketing at Bosa Development. It took only 120 days for all of the units to sell at over $1,000 a square foot, said Jauhal, who added that the larger (and more expensive) three-bedroom plan with views of the bay, bridge and city was among the most popular.
