Looks like home prices are down 8% since last year in SF. Maybe things will get better soon

Hopefully but probably not.. Uber, Lyft, Airbnb, Pinterest, Slack, and maybe palantir and Robinhood down the peninsula are going to have IPOs in the next year.. that's a lot of millionaires.

Sweet, you mean there's going to be a ton of studios and 1 bedroom apartments coming onto the market then?

No, now that they are millionaires, they will be able to afford a studio or one bedroom apartment. So that supply will shrink.
