In love with a certain neighborhood and looking to buy? We're here to help, or at least provide some valuable information. We asked national real estate brokerage Redfin to compile the median sold price for Q1 in 2014 by neighborhood. Some neighborhoods aren't shown because there wasn't enough activity to properly assess a median. As expected, the median sale price varies significantly by neighborhood. We've also gone a step further and broken the medians into two categories: condos and single-family homes.
At $475K, Bayview had the lowest median for Q1 for condo sales. Nob Hill had the highest at $1.65M. The neighborhood with the most condo sales was South Beach at 80 sales during the three month period. Because there's a development boom and condos are flying off the shelves, there were significantly less single-family home sales in San Francisco for the quarter. The neighborhood that saw the most action was the Outer Sunset with 31 reported sales. Many neighborhoods, including Mission Dolores and Nob Hill, didn't have a single single-family home sale in the first quarter of 2014. Interested in what the Q1 medians would get you right now? We've mapped some options for you below. If a neighborhood isn't on the map, that means that there wasn't a listing that was close to the Q1 median.

The Median Sold Prices for San Francisco's Neighborhoods
Potrero Hill Condo
Coming in slightly under budget at $850K is this 2-bed, 2-bath, 975-square-foot condo. Built in 2007, the interiors are very contemporary. You also can't beat the ground floor retail, which is a Whole Foods. Monthly HOA dues are $502 and there's 1-car parking in the garage.
Glen Park Single-Family Home
AT $1.195M, this mid-century modern Glen Park single-family home is actually the cheapest currently for sale in the neighborhood. And yes, it's still $35K over the Q1 median. It's a 3-bed, 2.5-bath, 1,911 square foot home.
Excelsior Single-family home
The median for the Excelsior was $620K, so we're not too far off budget with this 3-bed, 2-bath, 1,429 square foot home that's asking $649K. The home was recently completely renovated, and it shows. There's contemporary finishes, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and more. There's also a lower level with a wet bar area and bonus rooms. The backyard is awesome.
FiDi Condo
$1.288M will get you a 2-bed, 2-bath, 1,250-square-foot condo on the 42nd floor of 333 Bush. As expected from the 42nd floor, views are seen from every window, and it's extra special since it's a corner unit. Monthly HOA dues are $1,180 and there's 1-car parking in the garage if you want to shell out an additional $275 per month.
Outer Mission Single-Family Home
Not far off from the median of $701K is this 3-bed, 2.5-bath, 1,750-square-foot single-family home in the Outer Mission. You can't really beat $417 per square in this town. The home's four levels and has been completely renovated from the bottom up.
Outer Sunset Single-Family Home
In the Outer Sunset, $788K gets you a 3-bed, 2-bath, 1,325-square-foot abode with parquet flooring, a vintage (read: colorful pastel tile) kitchen and bathrooms, and a potentially unwarranted but completely awesome wood paneled rumpus room complete with bar.
Marina Condo
For $1.278M, you can be the proud owner of a 2-bed, 1-bath condo in the Marina. It's a classic Marina flat: two bedrooms off a long hallway. No mention of HOA dues but there's 1-car parking in the garage.
Bayview Single-Family Home
Bayview's median sold price for single-family homes was $510K, so this 3-bed, 1-bath, 1,628 square foot abode asking $520K isn't far off. Unfortunately there are no interior photos, but we do know that it was built in 1930 and has an unwarranted addition.
Portola Single-Family Home
We're over a little over budget at $679K for this Portola home. The home clocks in at 1,300 square feet and has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Its interiors have been remodeled, but the exterior lacks curb appeal.
Pacific Heights Single-Family Home
While this Pacific Heights home is under budget at $4.895M, what difference does $100K make when you're in the mid seven figures? This particular property is a 6-bed, 4.5-bath 4-story home.
Bernal Heights Single-Family Home
Bernal Heights' median for single-family homes was $1.2M, so we're a bit under budget with this abode at $1.099M. The 2-bed, 1-bath home has no interior photos, so we haven't a clue what condition it's in. The listing states that it's a perfect home for first-time buyers, which strikes us as odd since it's more than one million dollars.
Richmond District Single-Family Home
This home in the Outer Richmond hits the median right on target at $1.599M. The peachy exterior does not match the gaudy interior, which will need much cosmetic remodeling. It's 2,920 square feet and has five bedrooms and four bathrooms.
Pacific Heights Condo
$1.295M gets you a 1,582-square-foot ground floor condo in Pacific Heights. It has two bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms. Monthly HOA dues are $585 and there's 1-car parking in the garage.
