In 2014, the Sunset Disrict was the most competitive market for homebuyers in the nation, according to research by real estate website Redfin. Price growth in 2014 totaled 12.5 percent, and 87.9 percent of homes sold over asking, with a median sale price of $955,000. The Sunset's desirability owes, no doubt, to its (relative!) affordability in this town—at least until everyone flees for Crocker in Daly City, 2015's predicted hottest neighborhood. In January, the median sale price fell back to $929,000, though there's not a ton of inventory around and we expect things to pick back up come spring, as they're wont to do. Here now, we've rounded up the 10 least expensive properties for sale in the Sunset right this second. The most common list price is $799,000, for which you'll usually get a boxy two-bedroom in need of upgrades.

Noriega Street 2BR Condo

Copy Link

Asking price: $649,000
Size: 2-bed, 2-bath condo
The skinny: This well-kept Central Sunset condo is in a six-unit building built in 1981. It's got hardwood floors throughout, and a "recently painted" (if not exactly updated) kitchen. The building has laundry on site and HOA dues of $319/month.

1941 Noriega Street #2, San Francisco, CA 94122

46th Avenue 2BR House

Copy Link

Asking price: $679,000
Size: 2-bed, 1-bath, 1,200-square-foot single-family home
Price per square foot: $566
The skinny: This house features hardwood floors and a charming fireplace, but even the brokerbabble concedes that it needs some TLC. On the plus side, it's just a quick walk from the beach.

2150 46th Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94116

Judah Street 2BR House

Copy Link

Asking price: $728,000
Size: 2-bed, 1-bath, 800-square-foot single-family home
Price per square foot: $910

Size: 2-bed, 1-bath, 1,490-square-foot single-family home
Price per square foot: $536
The skinny: This home hailing from 1936 looks like a charmer from the street, but no interior photos accompany the listing, so that impression is not likely to hold up. Less than a block from the N Judah.

1406 40th Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94122

Great Highway Duplex

Copy Link

Asking price: $799,000
Size: 2 units: a 1-bed, 1-bath and a studio
The skinny: This Great Highway duplex is in dire need of a gut renovation. However, its unencumbered views of Ocean Beach are an undeniable strong point.

2028 Great Highway, San Francisco, CA 94116

Copy Link

Asking price: $799,000
Size: 2-bed, 1-bath, 1,100-square-foot single-family home

Size: 2-bed, 2-bath, 1,181-square-foot single-family home
Price per square foot: $694

44th Avenue 2BR House

Copy Link

Asking price: $829,000
Size: 2-bed, 1-bath, 1,132-square-foot single-family home
Price per square foot: $732
The skinny: This well-maintained home on 44th Avenue won't make the cover of Architectural Digest, but it is move-in ready. Though technically a two-bedroom house, the property features a sunroom large enough to function as a third bedroom.

Size: 3-bed, 2-bath, 1,515-square-foot single-family home
