Whether you’re preparing to sell your home, moving to a smaller space, renovating, or simply trying to reclaim an overstuffed garage, basement, or closet, eventually you have to figure out what to do with all the stuff you no longer want.

The good news is that in San Francisco, “throw it away” is rarely your only option. Furniture, clothing, books, building materials, art supplies, electronics and even some seemingly difficult-to-dispose-of household items can often be donated, reused, recycled or picked up.

The trick is figuring out where each item belongs.

How's the market? In San Francisco, sales have been driven more by wealth creation than by mortgage rates: the AI boom has spiked demand, especially for family-ready homes in specific neighborhoods. That boom is concentrated in the city proper, with modest overflow onto the Peninsula. San Francisco's median sales price is up 25% year-over-year; San Mateo County is up nearly 10%. In the other eight Bay Area counties, price trends look much more like the country as a whole, essentially flat versus a year ago. Read more in the market report.

Prices year over year are technically up from a year ago, but that’s a low bar, considering May 2025 prices were down from May 2024. Inventory also remains constrained, which has upward pressure on prices. Read more on the blog.

For many San Francisco homebuyers, a Tenancy in Common (TIC) property can offer an appealing path to homeownership. TICs typically come at a lower price point than comparable condominiums. In some cases, TICs can be converted to condos, increasing their value and desirability. However, this is not a slam dunk. It's important to understand both the opportunities and the complexities before making a purchase decision.

The Bay Area housing market hit a lot of national headlines in May. In San Francisco, Al and tech-driven demand has created aggressive bidding wars on the scarce inventory. Skyrocketing rents are back in the norm. Even the city's condo market, which has been under pressure for six years, is showing signs of demand recovery.

Our clients came up from San Francisco, where they recently sold their condo in the Castro. Now that they’re retired, they wanted to be closer to their kids and their families, all of whom live in the Sacramento area. They honed in on this ranch-style home in the desirable Pocket neighborhood in the southwest corner of the city. They were taken in by the open floor plan with vaulted ceilings in the living room/dining room, gorgeous fireplace, and open kitchen perfect for entertaining. Most importantly, since they have grandchildren, the spacious back yard has a pool, as well as a spa where the adults can unwind.

For these clients, the third time really was the charm. After missing out twice on coveted homes in ever-popular Noe Valley, our buyers broadened their search to nearby neighborhoods. Bernal Heights had always been on their radar, though many homes there are smaller and often sit on narrow streets with challenging parking. With limited inventory, it became a waiting game. So when this 1988 gem on the sought-after northwest slope hit the market, they were ready to act quickly—and decisively. Beating out two other offers, they landed a fully turnkey home that was worth every bit of the journey: an open floor plan perfect for entertaining, a view deck accessible from both bedroom levels, a spacious upstairs primary suite, and a cavernous garage with room for cars, storage, and all their gear. They’re fired up—and we are right there with them.

We love helping our friends and clients, and we love them a little extra when they refer us new clients. Not only is it a great vote of confidence, it also instills an automatic sense of mutual trust between us. So when Brian and Sadie came to us via our friends, things just clicked.

They were looking for a large enough house for modern living: good entertaining rooms, space for a home office and gym, and comfortable guest accommodations. Since this is their first time living in our city, the house had to really scream San Francisco. Luckily, the search didn’t take long and they landed a beautiful spot on the western slope of Bernal Heights with views over the Mission District. Although technically a two-unit building, the upper level lives like a single family while the lower unit is perfect for long-term guests. We know they will have a fantastic time in their new neighborhood and city.
