Updated Sept. 3, 2026 · Data: Redfin · 3 months ending Aug. 31, 2026 · San Francisco, CA

Methodology
  • These figures are published by Redfin Data Center. We show them as published and do not estimate, combine or adjust them.
  • They describe San Francisco, CA (city). When a figure is not published for this area, it is left out; a county or metro figure is never shown in its place.
  • Each figure covers a rolling three-month period, not a single month, so it moves more slowly than a monthly number would.
  • Homes for sale counts every home that was listed at any point in the period.
  • Listings with price drops is the share of homes for sale whose asking price was cut during the period.
  • Changes from a year earlier compare the same measure for the same period one year before.
  • New figures are released monthly, and this page updates after each release. The latest release shown here is dated Sept. 3, 2026.

Methodology
  • These figures are published by Zillow Research. We show them as published and do not estimate, combine or adjust them.
  • They describe San Francisco (city). When a figure is not published for this area, it is left out; a county or metro figure is never shown in its place.
  • Each figure is for one calendar month.
  • Typical home value is the Zillow Home Value Index: an estimate of what a typical home is worth, smoothed and seasonally adjusted. It is not a sale price.
  • Typical asking rent is the Zillow Observed Rent Index: the typical rent asked for listed homes and apartments, smoothed. It is not what current tenants pay.
  • Changes from a year earlier compare the same measure for the same period one year before.
  • New figures are released monthly, and this page updates after each release. The latest release shown here is dated Sept. 16, 2026.
