Frequently asked

What is a normal HOA fee for a condo in San Francisco?
The median condo HOA fee in San Francisco is $952 a month, with most units between $686 and $1,440. Fees below about $525 or above $3,338 are unusual and worth a closer look. That's based on 304 San Francisco condos currently for sale.
Why are San Francisco HOA fees so different between buildings?
HOA dues track a building's costs — age, elevators, insurance, amenities and how well the reserve fund is funded — far more than its location. Two San Francisco condos a block apart can differ by hundreds a month, which is why the range above is wide. Across tracked San Francisco buildings, dues are rising a median 5.1%/yr.
Is a high HOA fee in San Francisco a bad sign?
Not by itself — a higher fee can mean a well-funded reserve that prevents surprise special assessments. What matters is what the fee buys and where it's headed. A fast-rising fee on a thin reserve is the real warning. You can upload a building's docs for a free reserve and assessment-risk read.
