What does “as-is” really mean when buying in San Francisco?

An as-is sale means the seller isn’t agreeing to make repairs or provide credits. It does not mean the buyer has no right to inspect, and it does not relieve the seller of disclosing known issues. In San Francisco, many homes are sold as-is because of their age and the desire for a clean, fast transaction. What matters is understanding the true condition before writing the offer. I help buyers interpret disclosures, inspections, and permit history so they know exactly what they’re stepping into.
