San Antonio Real Estate Market Update: What June and July 2026 Means for Buyers and Sellers

by Alan Greulich

The latest July 2026 San Antonio housing market data shows a market that is becoming more balanced. While home prices continue to rise, buyers have more choices than they did a year ago, and sellers need to price homes strategically to stand out.
 
Whether you're thinking about buying, selling, or simply keeping an eye on the market, here's what the latest numbers mean.

What Buyers Should Know

For buyers, this is one of the healthiest markets San Antonio has seen in several years.

Inventory has climbed to over six months, meaning buyers now have:

  • More homes to choose from
  • Less competition
  • More negotiating power
  • More opportunities for inspections and repairs

Although prices have continued to appreciate modestly, buyers no longer need to make rushed decisions in many situations.

If you've been waiting for the market to cool, this may be one of the best opportunities in recent years.


What Sellers Need to Know

The biggest takeaway for sellers isn't that homes aren't selling.

It's that pricing matters more than ever.

While total sales increased 15%, active inventory also increased 5%, giving buyers significantly more options.

Homes that are:

  • Properly priced
  • Professionally marketed
  • Beautifully photographed
  • Move-in ready

are still selling.

Homes that are overpriced often sit on the market and eventually require price reductions.

The Most Important Number: 93.8%

One statistic deserves special attention.

The average seller received 93.8% of their original asking price.

That means buyers are negotiating more frequently than they were during the pandemic market.

Example

If a home is listed for:

$500,000

the average accepted sales price today would be approximately:

$469,000

That doesn't mean every seller should automatically expect a 6.2% discount.

Instead, it highlights the importance of pricing correctly from the beginning rather than "testing the market."

Well-priced homes often outperform this average.


Home Prices Continue to Rise

Despite increased inventory, home values remain resilient.

Compared to June 2025:

  • Average price increased 5%
  • Median price increased 4%

This shows demand remains healthy, even as buyers gain more choices.

San Antonio continues to experience steady long-term appreciation rather than the rapid spikes seen during 2021 and 2022.


Price Per Square Foot Ticked Down

Average price per square foot slipped slightly to:

$176

(-1% year-over-year)

This doesn't necessarily mean home values are declining.

Price per square foot can fluctuate based on:

  • More luxury homes selling
  • Larger homes entering the market
  • Changes in neighborhood activity
  • Different property mixes month to month

It's one metric—not the whole story.

Days on Market Remain Stable

Homes averaged:

77 days on market

Only one percent longer than last year.

That's another sign the market is healthy—not overheated and not crashing.

Well-prepared homes are still moving.


Which Price Range Has the Most Inventory?

Current active listings by price point:

  • $0–$199,999: 12.33%
  • $200,000–$499,999: 66.89%
  • $500,000–$749,999: 12.79%
  • $750,000+: 7.99%

The majority of San Antonio inventory remains in the $200,000 to $499,999 range, making it the most competitive segment for both buyers and sellers.


My Advice as a San Antonio Realtor

Every market creates opportunities.

Today's market rewards preparation rather than luck.

If you're selling:

  • Price strategically.
  • Invest in professional marketing.
  • Make your home stand out online.

If you're buying:

  • Take advantage of increased inventory.
  • Negotiate intelligently.
  • Focus on long-term value instead of trying to perfectly time the market.

Real estate is always local. Neighborhood, condition, updates, school districts, and pricing strategy all play a major role in determining what your home is actually worth.
