We Can Only Hope Guess That's The “Attentive Resident Manager”

2250 Hyde #5

While we might not completely buy “The Ultimate San Francisco Apartment!” boast in the listing, we are quite enamored with a number of the picture postcard views as well as the building’s beautiful front door and entrance. Now about the guy that's guarding the front door in the photos...

∙ Listing: 2250 Hyde Street #5 (2/2) - $2,300,000 [MLS]

He's just multitasking.

Real estate ad AND personal ad.

Nice view of the attentive doorman! I wonder how noisy it is with the cable car tracks below, though ... and I agree about the great picture postcard views but I am TIRED of all those cushions with the tops punched down, they are ubiquitous in every staged condo and house. Give me a cushion that looks like it has just been thrown on the couch and I will want to sit there.

Why sell this - great revenue stream.

Why sell this - great revenue stream.

Because you think the market is going to tank faster than the revenue will come in?

yet another example of a listing broker excluding the square footage (and the key metric you can derive from that info).
understandable in situations where tax records are inaccurate
(b/c the tax record does not usually get updated after remodel that adds sq.footage) but very lame in this situation where the footprint obviously never changes. any brokers out there reading this? IMO its indicative of broker laziness or worse.
same goes for listing lot sizes where appropriate.

Cable car noise is not too bad. You can double pane the windows if you don't habituate.

Riders often cheer when they get to the crest of hill just north of Filbert. They sing carols at Christmastime. They even demonstrate for Ron Paul.

Whatever you do, don't tell toursits that they should drive up Filbert and turn left on Hyde to beat the huge line going up Lombard to the curvy street. Oh wait...

Size, Again?

2250 Hyde is a Stock Cooperative. The tax record will show the square footage of the entire building in which you are buying shares.

Size is not the best barometer of value.

In Real Estate.
