San Francisco home values rose nearly 12 percent in December from a year earlier, posting a median sale price of $1.15 million. Home sales also continued to climb, up 7.7 percent year over year.\u00a0The city\u2019s shortage of properties grew more acute last month, making the market even more difficult for buyers.\u00a0There were only 143 new listings on the market in December, down 18 percent from last year. Total inventory in San Francisco \u00a0also dwindled down to less than a month\u2019s supply of homes for sale, the lowest it’s been since Redfin started tracking those numbers in 2012. This is a far cry from the standard six months of inventory that signals a balanced market.<\/span>
\n“With so few homes to choose from buyers are really battling it out in San Francisco right now,” said Redfin agent Miriam Westberg<\/a>. “Although buyers are facing heavy competition it is still possible to get an offer accepted even if you’re not an all-cash buyer. My most successful buyers go a step beyond pre-approval with their lender and get fully approved before making an offer. Not all lenders offer this option so it’s important to shop around. Perhaps more importantly, do everything you can to make a personal connection with the seller — compelling cover letters do work!”<\/p>\n

Across the greater Bay Area, the median sale price rose nearly 15 percent in December, to $1 million, and sales rose almost 30 percent compared to a year earlier. <\/span><\/p>\n
