The median price for condos in San Francisco fell 1.4% to $755,000 from March, but, was up 4.5% year-over-year. The average price for condos gained 0.3% to $917,238, a new record high, for the second month in a row.  The average price was up 10.5% year-over-year.

Condo sales gained 17.5% month-over-month, down 22.1% year-over-year.

Days on market fell three to 40 days for homes, and was down five to 51 for condos.

The real estate market is very hard to generalize. It is a market made up of many micro markets. As Leslie Appleton-Young, chief economist for the California Association of Realtors, recently said, “Knowing the median price is interesting, but it is as indicative of the value of your home as knowing the median temperature in America is to predicting the local weather.”
