- I can't afford a home in the San Francisco housing market. I'm hopeful it's a phase, but it's emotionally exhausting getting outbid.
Alexandria Belton, 33, is struggling to afford a home in the San Francisco housing market due to rising prices driven by the AI boom. Her budget increased from $1.2 million to $1.5 million, but homes continue to sell far above asking prices, making fixer-uppers and single-family homes unattainable. She remains hopeful the market will stabilize but feels emotionally exhausted by the competition.
