Older housing stock often means aging roofs, plumbing, and electrical systems, which is steady repair work for contractors and handyman crews and a lever for investors pricing rehabs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrices.\u003c\/strong\u003e The median home value of $1,394,500 is 319% above the U.S. median of $332,700, and equals 9.9 times the county's median household income of $140,970. A high price-to-income ratio means any discount to market value is large in dollar terms, which is why wholesalers watch spreads closely in counties like this.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTenure.\u003c\/strong\u003e Renters make up 61.8% of occupied homes in San Francisco County, well above the national 34.8%.
