The San Francisco housing market saw record high median home and condo prices in April. Home sales more than doubled from March, while condo sales rose slightly. The sales to price ratio remained very high, indicating a seller's market with buyers paying well over the asking price. Inventory remained extremely low, at just over three weeks of supply. The report expects prices to continue rising due to high demand and low supply in the area.

SAN FRANCISCO
The sales price to list price ratio stayed over 100%
for the fourteenth month in a row. At 105.2%, the
ratio hasn't been higher since October 2005.
This is an extraordinarily tough market for buyers.
It’s important to be calm and realistic. If you don’t
know what to do or where to begin,
give me a call and let’s discuss your
situation and your options.
Prices Hit All-Time Highs
Well, that didn't take long. The median price for
single-family, re-sale homes in San Francisco hit
$1,000,000 for the first time ever. The median price
for condos/lofts reached $855,000, also an all-time
high.
Using a 3-month moving average, the median price
for condos/lofts is now up 4% over the last peak in
the market: July 2008. For single-family homes, the
3-month moving average is down 3% from the
peak: June 2007.
With the continued expansion of Silicon Valley into
the Market Street, we can expect demand to
continue to be strong.
The combination of high demand and low inventory
will push prices even higher. As of the 8th of the
month, there were only 506 homes, condos and
lofts for sale in San Francisco. At current rates of
sale, that's three weeks supply. In a normal market
we would see six month's supply!
We are seeing multiple offers on most homes being
sold.
Since January 2012, the 3-month moving average
median price for homes has increased 41%.
APRIL MARKET STATISTICS
Sales of single-family, re-sale homes more than
doubled from March: up 113.3%. Year-over-year,
sales were up 89.1%.
The sales price to list price ratio was 108.2% last
month. That's the highest it has been since
August 2005.

The Real Estate Report
The chart above shows the Na-
tional monthly average for 30-
year fixed rate mortgages as
compiled by HSH.com. The av-
erage includes mortgages of all
sizes, including conforming,
"expanded conforming," and
jumbo.
MORTGAGE RATE OUTLOOK
May 3, 2013 -- A cascade of fresh economic data came
out this week, variously reflecting economic conditions
in both March and April. A "big picture" look at the
data might lead one to an "economy is still troubled"
conclusion despite the current 2.5 percent run rate for
Gross Domestic Product.
Mortgage and other interest rates had been on a flat to
easing trend for much of the week as most of the data
did little to dispel the notion that we remain in a rough
patch, one even the Federal Reserve implicitly ac-
knowledged at the close of its meeting on Wednesday.
There was plenty of downbeat news available this
week to create additional cause for concern, but one
or two shining reports took the gloom out of the mar-
ket, at least for now. Mortgage rates are likely to rise
somewhat next week as a result.
HSH.com's broad-market mortgage tracker -- our
weekly Fixed-Rate Mortgage Indicator (FRMI) -- found
that the overall average rate for 30-year fixed-rate
mortgages eased by four basis points (0.04%) to
3.61%, another new low for 2013 and close to "all-
time" record lows set last year. The FRMI's 15-year
companion dropped by three basis points (0.03%) to
2.86% for the week, another actual all-time low. FHA-
backed 30-year FRMs followed along with a decline of
two basis points (0.02%), falling to an average rate of
3.26% (record low by two basis points) and was ac-
companied by a three-hundredth of a percentage point
slip in the overall average rate for 5/1 Hybrid ARMs,
which trekked down to an average 2.57% - another
new low water-mark for the most popular ARM.
As far as interest rates go, it took an accumulation of
fair economic news over a period of months and some
considerable market optimism about the economy's
future to bump them up during the late winter and
early spring. That trend did an about face over the last
six weeks or so as the economic news turned darker.
Is the employment report the start of a new spate of
solid news, or simply a bright spot in an otherwise dim
sky?
For the moment, the brighter employment picture on
Thursday and Friday was sufficient to cause a reversal
in the decline in interest rates. The influential 10-year
Treasury bounced upward by more than a tenth-
percentage point on Friday, so it's to be expected that
at least some of that will show in mortgage rates as
we round into next week. Many popular mortgages
have been easing to record (or near record lows) but
will move away from them next week, when a 5 or 6
basis point rise in HSH's FRMI seems most likely.3.0% 4.0% 5.0% 6.0% 7.0% 8.0%

Notices of default, the first step in the foreclosure proc-
ess, in San Francisco continued dropping in March:
down 37.8% from February. Year-over-year, notices
were off 81.9%.
Notices of sale, which set the date and time of an auc-
tion, and serve as the homeowner's final notice before
sale, fell 63.2% from February, and were down 72%
year-over-year.
After the filing of a Notice of Trustee Sale, there are
only three possible outcomes. First, the sale can be
cancelled for reasons that include a successful loan
modification or short sale, a filing error, or a legal re-
quirement to re-file the notice after extended postpone-
ments.
FORECLOSURE STATISTICS
Alternatively, if the property is taken to sale, the bank
will place the opening bid. If a third party, typically an
investor, bids more than the bank's opening bid, the
property will be sold to the third party; if not, it will go
back to the bank.
In March, cancellations were up 9.6% from February,
but down 2.4% year-over-year.
Properties going back to the bank were up 33.3% in
March from February. Year-over-year, the number of
properties going back to the bank was down 79.5%.
The total number of properties that have had a notice of
default filed fell by 64.5% compared to March 2012.
