Who Buys in SoMa, San Francisco

AI founders who want sub-10-minute office proximity, investors seeking the city's highest rental yield, early-career tech buyers starting at the $750K–$1.2M condo tier, and buyers optimizing for career flexibility over neighborhood character.

Market Dynamics — SoMa 2026

SoMa condo inventory has tightened significantly as new construction permits slow. Loft conversions and live-work units carry a premium of 8–15% over comparable new construction. The AI-era employer cluster has added structural demand that insulates the neighborhood from the broader downtown office vacancy narrative.
