January 2014 San Antonio Home Sales Report

The beginning of January 2014 closes the most active San Antonio residential real estate market year since 2006. 

According to Steven Gragg, Chairman of the San Antonio Board of Realtors, “This year’s housing market proved even stronger than 2012, with the lowest months of inventory being reported in over six years. Every month, the total number of home sales exceeded those of their 2012 counterparts.”

What does the future hold for San Antonio home sales? Analysts predict 2014 will be equally as active as 2013, if not more so.

Why? 

  
Home sales will remain strong because the area's exceptionally strong economy.

Here are the facts.


The San Antonio metropolitan area is basically an economic powerhouse driven by the still developing Eagle Ford shale oil and gas industry, a thriving business friendly environment based on tourism, service industries, a large active duty and retired uniformed services community, and thriving medical treatment, education, and training institutions. 

Significantly, the proliferation of many new locally grown and inbound  businesses has produced the economic diversification the Alamo city has long needed to insure a stable and reliable source of manpower, money, and materials for now and years to come.

Also, as evidence of San Antonio’s rosy economy, Forbes Magazine recently ranked San Antonio as being in second place for cities least effected by the late Great Recession.

So, here’s what can be expected for San Antonio’s residential sales in January 2014 and into the following months: 

•  the inventory of newly constructed and resale homes will remain unusually low, 
•  home list prices will increase,
•  home sale prices will increase, 

•  average time to sell a home will decrease, 
•  pressure on the already limited new and resale home supply will increase as buyers rush to make their purchases in the face of rising mortgage interest rates,and 
•  the months long sellers’ market will continue unabated.

Despite the good news for home sellers, prospective home buyers should take heart in knowing that, historically, San Antonio has a consistent record of moderate but steady home value appreciation and sales market stability. Furthermore, San Antonio homes are still very affordable when compared to homes in the nation’s other large metropolitan areas.

That’s the good news for our January 2014 San Antonio residential realty market report.
