San Francisco's housing market continues to surprise, and this month there's a lot to unpack.

In this episode, fellow BarbCo Real Estate Group agent Jaime Watson (East Bay/SF) stood in for Ying who is currently on medical leave, to talk through what they're seeing across the city, from the remarkable number of homes selling well above asking price to the continued impact of limited inventory and strong buyer demand. They also discuss why the tech and AI industries are continuing to shape the market, even as we move into what is typically a quieter summer season.

The conversation takes a closer look at what's happening across single-family homes, condominiums, and luxury properties, including which neighborhoods are seeing the strongest appreciation and how the condo market is finally showing encouraging signs. They also compare what's happening in Marin and the East Bay, touching on how insurance concerns, wildfire risk, and local market conditions are influencing buyers' decisions.

Along the way, they highlight a standout Glen Park sale, talk about how today's inventory is affecting both buyers and sellers, and explore California's evolving ADU laws, including what they could mean for homeowners considering adding value to their property.

Whether you're thinking about making a move or simply enjoy keeping up with the San Francisco Bay Area market, we hope you'll join us for the conversation.

Amanda Martin and Ying He are back with their April/May 2026 market update and spoiler: this market is still hot.

Active inventory is down 30 to 40% year over year, buyers are out there fighting hard for everything, and the numbers? A 1,100 square foot fixer in Noe Valley listed at $1.3M, closed at $2.5M. Pacific Heights homes selling at a median of 12 days and $8M.

The demand is also building up around Golden Gate Park, The Inner Sunset is having a moment because of that and the condo market is in full recovery for the moment.

Whether you're a buyer exhausted from losing offer after offer, a seller wondering if now is the right time, or you're just trying to make sense of where SF real estate is actually headed. They give you the real, on-the-ground picture.

A closer look at bilingual, globally focused education in San Francisco. In this episode of The Bay Insider, Amanda Martin and Ying He sit down with Federica Lentini, the Assistant Head of School at La Scuola International School, for a closer look at one of San Francisco’s more distinctive bilingual programs. What began as a small, parent-led Italian language group has grown into a pre-K through 8th grade community serving nearly 400 students.

We talk about the school’s Reggio Emilia roots, its International Baccalaureate framework, and how Italian–English immersion actually works across grade levels. It’s a thoughtful conversation about bilingual education, progressive learning, and why families from a wide range of backgrounds are drawn to this model.
