What a $24 million home sale tells us about San Francisco’s comeback

A contemporary house on San Francisco’s Russian Hill has sold for its full asking price of $24 million, according to property records. The six-bedroom home went into contract a week after going on the market, according to the multiple listing service.

The speedy sale is a far cry from the last time the house went on the market, for $19.995 million in 2022. That time around, it took more than a year to sell for just $9.99 million—about half its asking price.

The home’s history reflects the recent ups and downs of San Francisco itself. The city weathered a severe post-Covid downturn, garnering national attention for its high crime rate, growing homeless encampments and empty store fronts. Now, with a new mayor and at the epicenter of AI, it is seeing a dramatic uptick in luxury home sales.

AI startups are shifting the economic center of gravity of San Francisco


An one-two punch of return-to-office mandates and the explosion of AI startups has shifted San Francisco's tech center into smaller neighborhoods.

Together AI is one of those startups, housed in the Design District, where office space costs around $59.53 per square foot, according to a
fourth-quarter 2025 report from Cresa, a commercial real estate company. That is comparably more affordable than the cost of commercial space, which has hit $70 per square foot or more in the Financial District and Mission Bay, where OpenAI's office is located.

Companies focused on AI, such as Virtual AI, Applied Compute, Rox AI, and Curai Health, are all located in the same building as Together AI. Other AI companies with a three-block radius include Scale AI, Resolve AI, and Gamma. Together AI is currently in talks to raise a new round of funding at a $7.5 billion valuation. Altogether, these companies have a valuation of more than $40 billion.
