San Francisco
Known by many names, SF is definitely a city that can be easy to fall in love with on a sunny day and more challenging if weather forms an influence on your day to day life. The ocean and water vibes are a big draw and the outer neighborhoods of Outer Richmond and Outer Sunset provide easy proximity and views. The homes have long attached garages which can double as rec space or an additional bedroom if so inclined. The neighborhoody folks might prefer Cole Valley, Hayes Valley and Duboce Triangle for a mix of retail, restaurants and purposeful walkability. A mix of multi unit single structure homes and newer short rises are the most prevalent options. Pacific Heights and the Marina are tried and true, with conveniences that include all the above while swapping the ocean for the San Francisco Bay. But if you want to “guarantee” yourself a bit more sun and warmth, then you’ll have to look east starting with Mission Bay down to Dogpatch. From new luxury midrises to gentrified multi unit Victorians, and newly constructed and updated green spaces. If single occupancy living is a bit more preferred, neighboring Potrero Hill has it and one of the most vibrant Halloween family nights. Schools can be tougher in the city, with lottery being the way, so private schooling is often a preference and/or consideration for those that are committed to San Francisco. Many of our clients have been motivated to make tough home decisions between staying in SF or moving to the mid Peninsula on the topic of schools and family life, so we can certainly provide some guidance and reassurance there.
