Haight Ashbury
Neighborhood Overview
Haight Ashbury
Once synonymous with the counter culture revolution, today's Haight Ashbury is a decidedly more grown up neighborhood. Here you'll find some of the City's most unique homes, parks and shopping. Of course, it's still a tourist favorite. The Haight radiates around one of the city's most popular shopping destinations. You can find books and art, vintage and trendy attire, high end chocolates and second hand records. There are many popular dive bars, but that doesn't keep up and coming mixologists away. And when dinner rolls around, the dining options are endless. The neighborhood is home to many Victorian and Edwardian homes, some of which have been restored in eye-popping palettes. Homes near the Panhandle are exceptionally desirable. There are also multi-unit apartment buildings and condos for the investment buyer. Beautiful parks surround the Haight. The Panhandle is a great spot to bike, shoot hoops or just chill out by the bandstand. Golden Gate Park is home to many cultural attractions and outdoor pursuits. And Buena Vista Park is near the eastern edge of the neighborhood, popular with joggers, dog walkers, and anyone who loves a great view. Running along the north edge of the neighborhood, both Oak and Fell streets are major thoroughfares offering quick auto access to downtown and freeways. A number of busses serve the area, and a Muni street car stops just south of Haight. Bicyclists utilize a path called The Wiggle to access the neighborhood without taking on major hills or busy intersections.- Zip Code(s): 94117

The SF Inventory is Finally Arriving
5-9-2012
Buyers and Realtors have been complaining about the lack of residential inventory in San Francisco since earlier this year. Indeed, it seems like buyers are fully engaged in our single-family home, condo and multi-unit offerings and have hit the market looking for property all at the same time. That means that for every cool house in a central location, there are 10-15 sets of buyers waiting to pounce.
Buyers Will Pay For "Done," Even in So-So Locations
5-7-2012
Despite most San Francisco buyers' firm proclamation at the outset of their house hunt that they won't pay for someone else's renovation, many are doing just that. One trend that doesn't appear to be slowing is that of buyers snatching up fully renovated single-family homes---and paying dearly for them, even if the homes are not in prime locations within a given neighborhood. (Because not everyone can afford a newly renovated home in the heart of Noe Valley, right?)
If You're Into Recycling, You'll Love These Two New Programs

For someone like me who would recycle dryer lint if I could, these two new programs may appeal to your inner green as much as they did mine.
