Housing site Zillow today issued its forecast for the hottest neighborhoods in the San Francisco metro area for 2016 – and it turns out they are all in Oakland. The results are based on the Zillow Home Value forecast, which predicts the change in the Zillow Home Value Index over the next 12 months. Within that criteria for potential prices, Oakland was far and away the biggest gainer, with the Jefferson neighborhood claiming the top spot. You can see the complete list below “The neighborhoods on our list of the hottest neighborhoods for 2016 are the places we think home values will rise fastest over the next year," Svenja Gudell, Zillow (NASDAQ: ZG) chief economist, told the Business Times. "In the Bay Area, fast-growing home values are caused by high demand. San Francisco’s job market is doing well and a lot of people are competing for the same housing, driving up prices." Oakland grabbing the top hottest spots came as no surprise to Gudell, who said Oakland's continuing boom can be nothing but good news for homeowners there.

"In 2016, people will continue to cross the bridge hoping to find an affordable place to live, driving up home values in Oakland neighborhoods," she said. "Oakland is seeing a lot of fast growth, new businesses – like Uber – and it’s changing fast," she added.

Does it have high-end appliances, upscale finishes, a sparkling pool or a beautifully landscaped patio?These homes look nothing like that.In metro areas with hot real estate markets like San Francisco, you can find homes priced well over $1 million that are true fixer-uppers -- or even teardowns.

While homes costing around $1 million may sound expensive for buyers used to prices closer to the U.S. median home value (currently at $186,200, according to real estate website Zillow), many of them present relatively good deals for buyers looking in pricier areas."In expensive metro areas, the starting (price) point is going to be higher," said Brendon DeSimone, real estate expert for Zillow. "No matter what market you're in -- high end or low end -- there's a fixer-upper for sale."If the home happens to be in an in-demand location in one of these high-priced markets, DeSimone said a $1 million fixer-upper can end up with multiple offers above its asking price and may be worth $3 million to $4 million after renovation.The key for buyers in expensive metros is to find the best deal in the neighborhood where they want or need to live, even if it involves paying for repairs. But the problem, at least in many markets these days, is low inventory. It's getting harder to find properties no one else wants.
