  $300? Wow, that's crazy. Curious whereabouts you were looking. Highest I saw when I was looking was $150 (around oct last year).

    $150? No way. I'm talking Inner Richmond, Laurel Heights. Not even SOMA or Downtown where it's over $350. What area were you getting $150 for?

      > SOMA or Downtown Ok yeah, in those areas, I can see it happening (but then again, I would never rent in those areas if I have a car...) I was looking for 2beds mostly around sunset and richmond (basically around areas with good elementary schools). I'm surprised you got such a different experience because when I was searching, many places had parking included, and "important" factors like parking/laundry didn't even seem to affect the price as much as other random reasons (e.g. recent renovations, landlord whims, the real estate agent mediating, perceived "transit convenience", etc) I spent a significant amount of time looking (I toured well over 50 places), and there's definitely a bunch of full-of-$%&@ people out there trying to rip you off. It's hard to find good deals, but not impossible, and I did get a few who even offered to waive deposit/first month/parking or to negotiate.
