The San Francisco Standard recently reported on how buildings undergoing the SB 800 process—where HOAs and developers collaborate to resolve construction or finish-quality issues—can be temporarily blacklisted by some lenders. Kevin Ho and Jonathan McNarry of Vanguard Properties stay ahead of this and other emerging trends to help their clients navigate with clarity and confidence.

Click It to Learn MoreFrom $700K to $1.58M: A Strategic San Francisco Home Sale
When we first met the seller of this Sunnyside home in San Francisco, the property was tenant-occupied and featured original, dated finishes. The estimated as-is value was between $600,000 and $800,000.
We connected the seller with a trusted legal team to help longtime tenants transition out (they later purchased their own home), then advised on targeted home improvements—focused, high-return updates designed specifically for the San Francisco real estate market.
The result?
Listed at $1,395,000. Sold at $1,580,000.
In less than two weeks.
At more than $1,100 per square foot.
This successful home sale reflects the power of the right prep, the right upgrades, and the right real estate team.

Click It to Learn MoreThe tech sector has always had its ups and downs—recent DeepSeek-related turbulence is just another entry in the clips folder. But let’s not forget: four of the world’s most powerful tech titans, along with the most promising AI unicorns, remain headquartered in the Bay Area. The billionaires who shaped this industry? Still here. The workers who built it over decades? Still here. Many of these individuals have already realized their fortunes, and for those yet to, restricted stock units help buffer equity market volatility.
