🏡 San Antonio Real Estate Market Update – August 2025

What Buyers and Sellers Need to Know Right Now

The San Antonio housing market remains active and resilient this August, with opportunities on both sides of the table. Whether you're buying, selling, or just keeping an eye on the market, here’s what you should know about the current conditions in the Alamo City.


📈 Market Snapshot – August 2025

  • Median Home Price: $306,000

  • Days on Market (DOM): 43 days

  • Inventory: ~3.2 months of supply

  • Closed Sales: Down slightly YoY, but steady compared to July

  • Interest Rates: Holding around 6.5%–6.75% (conventional 30-year fixed)

  • Active Listings: Up by 7.4% from last year


🏠 What It Means for Buyers

With a growing inventory and homes staying on the market slightly longer, buyers are regaining some negotiating power. While interest rates remain higher than the pandemic-era lows, many buyers are using temporary rate buydowns or seller concessions to make financing more manageable.

Pro tip for buyers: Be ready to act when you find the right property. Homes in popular neighborhoods like Alamo Ranch, Stone Oak, and Cibolo are still seeing quick offers.


📊 What It Means for Sellers

While the market isn’t quite as aggressive as it was during the 2021–2022 peak, San Antonio remains a strong seller’s market in many areas. Pricing your home competitively and presenting it well are key. Properties that are move-in ready and listed below the median price point are still seeing multiple offers, especially in areas close to military bases, schools, and major employers.

Pro tip for sellers: Invest in curb appeal and pre-listing prep. Clean, staged homes that show well are selling faster and with better terms.


🔍 Local Trends We’re Watching

  • More New Construction: Builders are offering incentives to compete with resale listings. Watch for builder contributions toward closing costs and rate buydowns.

  • Military Moves Picking Up: PCS season continues to fuel buyer activity in areas near Randolph AFB, Lackland AFB, and Fort Sam Houston.

  • First-Time Buyer Momentum: Programs like TSAHC and VA loans are helping first-time buyers stay active, even with higher rates.


💬 Final Thoughts

San Antonio continues to offer a strong mix of affordability, growth, and lifestyle—making it one of the most stable housing markets in Texas. Whether you're planning to buy, sell, or invest, the key to success in this market is working with a local expert who understands the shifts in real time.
