August 2013 San Antonio, Texas, Home Sales Market Report
It's
August 2013 and everything seems unusually hot in-and-around San Antonio and south
Texas, including the climate, the area's thriving economy,
and the Alamo City's residential real estate market.
As recently reported
locally and throughout the country. San Antonio is one of the nation's leading cities for economic health, positive demographic trends, and long term
growth.
So, it’s not
surprising that San Antonio is
presently experiencing its most active real estate market in the last 7 years. Home sales are dramatically up and
home values in most neighborhoods have
returned to, or are exceeding,
pre-recession levels.
During the late Great Recession, San Antonio’s home market entered a brief slump leading to a moderately strong buyer’s market. Now,
because the inventory of homes for sale is unusually low, the entire San
Antonio metropolitan area is seeing an exceptionally strong home seller’s
market. Listing and sold home prices
are rising, home sellers are receiving offers close to their asking price, and
buyers are encountering less seller flexibility and harder negotiations.
Historically, San
Antonio's realty sales high season ends in August, but, this year, it's not at
all certain that home buyers and sellers will see a cooler, more casual, and
less aggressive fall season realty market. Only time will tell, but, in light of
this year's dramatic activity, a longer residential sales high season is a
distinct possibility for San Antonio.
That's the news
for our August 2013 San Antonio realty market report. We encourage reader
comments and recommendations about how to make our reports more informative and
useful.
