Zeroing in on the decline…

February 12, 2009

In case you hadn’t figured it out yet, we spend a lot of time building and looking at spreadsheets over here at InsideSFRealEstate.  We’re constantly looking at ways of improving our analysis in our search for truth.  A criticism we have of our own analysis is always looking at things on an annual scale.  Generally, this is okay.  But 2008 was a weird year.  Very weird… particularly the last quarter.

Did we see evidence of a dive at the end of 2008?

How bad was the dive at the end of 2008?

For this reason, we decided to break Q4 off from the rest of the year and compare it to Q4′s of years past.  We felt that this might give us more insight into just how dramatic the end of ’08 really was.  And oh boy, did we discover a dive! Read the rest of this entry ?

Pacific Heights Condo Market Check-Up

January 30, 2009

We’ve been busy.  Very busy.  We have been putting together our first post called “Market Check-Up”, in which we’ll delve deep into a local micro-market and give you all the stats, trends and analysis you could ever hope for.  This is like our Getting Granular series on steroids.  In this series you’ll see:

  • Median Sales Price trends over the past 14 years, inflation adjusted using the Consumer Price Index!
  • Sales Volume, as compared to the overall San Francisco market.  You’ll learn how this neighborhood has increased or decreased in volume over time.
  • How much appreciation or depreciation you would have realized if you owned your property for X amount of years (again, inflation adjusted).
  • Year over year appreciation rates comparing our micro-market of choice to San Francisco as a whole.  This will let you know if the neighborhood is a good or poor performer in relation to the entire City.
  • Marketshare:  You’ll learn how much of the overall San Francisco market this neighborhood is responsible for.
  • Days on market trends and sales price to list price ratios.
  • Absorption rates, numbers of Expired and Withdrawn listings.
  • Add to that bullet points and commentary, and you’ve got yourself a good, all around micro-market “Check-Up”.
And we're underway!

And we're underway!

Let’s get things started, shall we?  The first neighborhood we’ve chosen is Pacific Heights and the property type is condominiums.  Even if you’re not interested in this market segment, take a peek at the article so you can see all the glorious analysis that’s in store for your neighborhood soon.

Getting Granular in NoPa

January 16, 2009

My my, it’s been a busy week!  My wife and I moved yesterday– so no time for blogging as we sought the answers to more important questions such as “hey, which box is our clean underwear packed in?”  Thankfully, we’ve located them so we’re back up and running today.  I had a little time amidst the unpacking to take a look at one of my favorite “renaissance” areas of the City, North Panhandle (aka, NoPa).

Moving is tough work!

Moving is tough work. That's me in the front, wife in the back.

The ‘hood has been transforming for many years now.  With architecture that wows at just about every corner, NoPa is home to much history and adds some amazing local color to our landscape.  A few trendy spots have set up shop in the nabe and the Divis corridor is happening.

Condos are prevalent in the area, so we looked at trends in median values over the past 14 years.  If you’re curious as to the trends, keep reading –>
