We’re having an unusually early spring this year in South Texas.
The signs of springtime are abundantly evident all around the Alamo City and the nearby Texas Hill Country and South Texas Plain. Flowers are blooming, birds are singing, and the residential real estate market is going CRAZY!
It’s easy to see why. The area’s economic foundation is exceptionally strong as evidenced recently by San Antonio being ranked by the Bureau of Labor Statistics as being among the top 10 metros with the greatest projected job growth through 2020.
It’s a fact. Texas is currently the Nation’s leading economic powerhouse and San Antonio and South Texas are a major contributor to the state’s economy, growth, and stability. The area’s oil and natural gas fields, health care industry, Air Force and Army complexes, tourist attractions, commercial activities, and service sector are generating historically high demographic and economic growth for the Alamo City and surrounding communities.
A vibrant economy drives home sales. Entering March 2012, average San Antonio area residential list prices are up 6.7% over March 2011, pending sales are up 10.81% and the latest closing prices are up 1.39%.
Remarkably, the homes-for-sale inventory is down 13.15% - the lowest March inventory since 2006. With only a 6.5 months inventory on hand, the home sales market is roughly balanced, offering a negotiation advantage to neither buyer nor seller.
That’s the good news for our March 2012 San Antonio realty market report. We encourage reader comments and recommendations about how to make our reports more informative and useful.
