San Francisco Real Estate Market Update | February 2026
Episode 33:
February 26, 2026
San Francisco housing inventory is still low, buyer demand is steady, and competition continues to shape the market which is exactly what Amanda Martin and Ying He talk about in this episode of The Bay Insider.
Rather than focusing on charts and heavy data, they share what they’re seeing day to day: activity at broker tours, offer timelines, pricing decisions, and how negotiations are actually playing out. Some homes are drawing multiple offers and strong overbids, while others are moving more slowly and require careful pricing.
They break down why low inventory affects both buyers and sellers, which parts of the city feel most competitive, and how to think about strategy when conditions are active but not uniform. They also touch on the bigger factors influencing demand and what they might mean going forward.
If you’re trying to understand what’s really happening in the San Francisco real estate market, this episode offers a clear and practical perspective.
