The AI boom is here. Here’s what it could mean for Bay Area real estate. 👇
The numbers:
→ $2T+ in combined AI company value across OpenAI, Anthropic, Databricks, xAI, and others
→ $130B–$400B in employee equity potentially becoming liquid
→ Historically, 15–25% of new tech wealth flows into housing
→ That could create $20B–$100B in new demand across our market
What that could mean for prices over the next 3–5 years:
→ Luxury homes ($5M+): +20–50%
→ Homes from $2M–$5M: +10–30%
→ Properties near major AI hubs: +15–40%
Where could the impact be strongest?
Palo Alto, Menlo Park, Mountain View, Los Altos, and San Francisco.
The best time to buy? Potentially before the IPOs—not after.
