New San Antonio Homes entering the market last week were 954 as our inventory grows giving buyers more leverage in negotiations and choice. We mentioned that on line searches were increasing a few weeks ago and we expected activity to follow. That’s exactly what is happening and where there is activity, transactions follow. Interest rates have settled down as you can see from the above graph. Well cared for homes, priced right continue to go under contract quickly as days on market increase. People are still in the market for homes and will continue to buy when the right home comes along.

Here’s a preview of the information being withheld as it does not “flow” with the narrative:

 

2021
December
2022
December
Change
Median Price $305,000 $322,000 10.5%
Active Listings 4,734 9,626 -6.2%
Closed Sales 3,615 2,512 -30.5%
Days on Market 35 59 68.6%
Months of Inventory 1.4 3.1 121.4%

 

Remember that a “Balanced Market” is 6 months of inventory and although we may be approaching it, we certainly aren’t there yet. Homes are taking longer to sell, as we see the Days on Market increasing. The point continues – they ARE selling. The most important thing you can do if you are looking to buy or sell in 2023, is work with someone who knows the numbers, has the confidence to get it done for their clients and has the support of their company to market your home and if necessary, add additional marketing resources themselves.

A promise from us – if you’re considering selling your home, we have solutions and would like to sit down and discuss the options. It’s what we do – let us “Guide You Home.” THERE ARE SOLUTIONS! THERE ARE NO SHORTCUTS!

 

The Numbers Month to Month and Year to Year

There have been 2,267 Properties Sold in the past 30 days, while pending sales over that same period are 2,746. These are very encouraging numbers to begin the year.

Ask us about RealVitalize, a program to help sellers make the repairs now and pay at closing! We refuse to take shortcuts. Professional HDR Photography remains “state of the art” and is used with every home we bring to the market. As one of our clients stated, “I can’t believe how my home looks with your photography. The pictures are amazing!”

With nearly 600 agents and over $1 Billion in yearly sales (yes, Billion) chances are we have buyers for your home within our grasp. We have processes in place to assist you in both the sale of your home and the purchase of your next home and our lender partners are ready and willing to have a discussion with you about what to expect. Talk to us about how we are getting our clients into their next home on time.

We are here to serve you. For helpful homeowner and real estate tips, please see our Blog.
