Our View On San Francisco Bay Area

When we underwrite a San Francisco Bay Area property, we start with the demand behind it — the world’s leading technology economy, major universities and research institutions, and some of the highest housing costs in the country.

Around Hayward, Oakland, and nearby parts of San Francisco County, a building does not need to be perfect — we price in repairs and vacancy ourselves.

Good To Know

Selling In San Francisco Bay Area

More about selling in California →
  • Local rent ordinances, such as the Los Angeles RSO, can apply on top of state law, so we confirm a building’s status before we make an offer.
  • We review the rent roll unit by unit against what comparable San Francisco Bay Area apartments lease for today, so below-market rents are an opportunity rather than a problem.
  • Because San Francisco County sets the assessed value, we review the property’s tax history as part of our first-pass underwriting.

Under Proposition 13, a sale resets the assessed value to the purchase price, with a base rate of about 1% plus local assessments, and annual increases capped at 2% afterward. We model the reassessed tax bill in every offer.
