San Antonio Home Prices Rising




According to FNC Incorporated, a respected real estate information and analytics company, San Antonio area home prices are rising moderately, but steadily.
Between September 2011 and September 2012, Alamo City area home prices rose 1.1 percent, however, between January through November 2012, prices rose 2.3%. 

A respected local new home sales analyst, Jack Inselmann of Metrostudy, recently said, “San Antonio has done comparatively well considering the challenges and I expect the new home market to continue to improve in 2013 ... .”

Recently, Steven Gragg, 2013 Chairman of the San Antonio Board of Realtors®  (SABOR) presented a very favorable summary of current San Antonio home market conditions.  He reported that, as of the November 2012 SABOR market analysis, homes are selling much quicker than a year ago -- 83 days average in November 2012 vs 98 days average in November 2011. 

As of January 2013, there is an exceptionally low inventory of homes listed in the SABOR Multiple Listing Service (MLS).  For the time being, this factor has created a strong home seller's market, however the post holiday season usually sees an influx of new listings.  If this year follows suit, a balancing effect is anticipated, producing a spring season sales environment favoring neither buyers or sellers.
