Wow, that's so sad. What area(s) in SF are you looking at?
Kind of all over, but this particular apartment was in Alamo Square. We're also looking in the Inner Sunset, Cole Valley, Lower Haight, Hayes Valley, and some Castro/Upper Market.
The SF apartment market is really brutal! I wasn't expecting it to be this bad.
This happened to us over and over in Philadelphia, with the added bonus of every building raising rent by at least $200/month since we started looking in April. It's crazy! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.
