The June 2026 housing statistics show a San Antonio real estate market that is active but increasingly balanced. Sales volume rose considerably compared with June 2025, while inventory remained above six months and homes continued to sell below their original asking prices on average.

These conditions can create opportunities for both buyers and sellers, but success depends heavily on pricing, preparation, property condition, financing, and neighborhood-level demand.

San Antonio Home Sales Increased 15%

A total of 3,479 homes were sold throughout the San Antonio area during June 2026. That represents a 15% increase compared with June 2025.

The increase in closed transactions shows that buyers are still moving forward when they find the right home, price, location, and financing terms. Higher sales activity does not necessarily mean every property is selling quickly, however. Buyers currently have more homes to compare and may be more selective about condition, upgrades, location, and overall value.

Average and Median Home Prices Increased

The average San Antonio sales price reached $401,319, an increase of approximately 5% from the previous year.

The median sales price increased to $329,730, representing a 4% year-over-year increase.

The median price is often a helpful measurement because it represents the midpoint of all homes sold. Half of the homes sold for more than the median price, while half sold for less.

Although overall prices increased, the average price per square foot declined slightly to $176 per square foot. This suggests that buyers may be receiving somewhat more space for their money, depending on the neighborhood, age, condition, and property type.

San Antonio Inventory Reached 6.13 Months

The San Antonio area recorded approximately 6.13 months of housing inventory in June.

Months of inventory estimates how long it would take to sell the current supply of homes if no additional properties entered the market. A market near six months of inventory is commonly considered more balanced than the extremely competitive market conditions experienced during the pandemic-era housing boom.

However, real estate conditions are not identical throughout the San Antonio area. Some neighborhoods, price ranges, and property types may still favor sellers, while others provide buyers with substantial negotiating leverage.

More Than 17,000 Homes Were Actively Listed

June 2026 recorded the following listing activity:

• New listings: 5,057, up 3%
• Active listings: 17,409, up 5%
• Pending listings: 2,704, down 10%
• Active residential rental listings: 4,642, up 7%

The increase in new and active listings gives buyers more options, but the 10% decline in pending sales suggests buyers are taking additional time to evaluate homes and negotiate before committing.

For sellers, increased competition means the home must compare favorably with other available properties. Accurate pricing, professional photography, presentation, repairs, marketing, and accessibility for showings are increasingly important.

Homes Took an Average of 77 Days to Sell

San Antonio homes spent an average of 77 days on the market, approximately 1% longer than the same period last year.

Days on market can vary considerably. A properly priced and well-maintained home may receive attention quickly, while an overpriced home may remain available for several months and require one or more price adjustments.

Sellers should also remember that days on market typically measure the period before a contract is accepted. Inspections, appraisals, repairs, financing, title work, and closing can add several more weeks to the transaction.

Homes Sold for 93.8% of Their Original List Price

Sellers received an average of 93.8% of their original asking price during June.

For example, 93.8% of a $400,000 original list price would equal approximately $375,200. This does not mean every seller accepted that amount, but it demonstrates how overly aggressive pricing can affect the final outcome.

The close-to-original-list-price ratio may reflect:

• Price reductions before a home receives an offer
• Buyer negotiations after inspections
• Seller-paid closing costs
• Repairs or improvement allowances
• Appraisal-related adjustments

Correctly pricing the home when it first enters the market can help create stronger buyer interest and reduce the likelihood of extended marketing time.

Which San Antonio Price Ranges Were Most Active?

Homes priced between $200,000 and $499,999 accounted for approximately 66.89% of the San Antonio area's June sales.

The remaining sales were distributed as follows:

• $0 to $199,999: 12.33% of sales
• $200,000 to $499,999: 66.89% of sales
• $500,000 to $749,999: 12.79% of sales
• $750,000 to $1 million: 7.99% of sales

The $200,000-to-$499,999 range remains the core of the San Antonio housing market. Competition and negotiating conditions within that broad category will still vary considerably depending on the specific neighborhood, school district, property condition, commute, and available financing.

San Antonio Rental Market Update

The average residential rental rate was approximately $1,864 per month. Active residential rental listings increased 7% to 4,642 properties.

A growing supply of rental homes can give tenants more choices, but rents may still vary considerably based on location, home size, condition, school district, amenities, and proximity to major employment centers or Joint Base San Antonio installations.

How San Antonio Compared With the Texas Housing Market

Texas recorded 32,873 total home sales during the reporting period, a year-over-year increase of approximately 7.7%.

The statewide average sales price was approximately $456,196, up 2.2%, while the statewide median price was $348,500, down approximately 0.5%.

San Antonio's median price of $329,730 remained below the Texas median, helping the area continue to offer comparatively affordable homeownership opportunities within a major metropolitan market.

The reported median price for Bexar County was approximately $310,545.

What the June Market Means for San Antonio Buyers

Buyers generally have more negotiating power than they did during the highly competitive market of several years ago. More inventory and longer marketing times may create opportunities to negotiate:

• Purchase price
• Seller-paid closing costs
• Interest-rate buydowns
• Home warranties
• Repairs or repair allowances
• Appliances and other personal property
• Flexible closing or possession dates

Buyers should still obtain a strong loan preapproval before touring homes. Properties that are priced correctly and located in desirable areas can still receive multiple offers.

What the June Market Means for San Antonio Sellers

Homes are still selling, but sellers must compete for buyer attention. With more than 17,000 active listings, placing a home on the market without a strategic pricing and marketing plan may not be enough.

Sellers should focus on:

• Pricing based on recent comparable sales and active competition
• Completing important repairs before listing
• Improving curb appeal and presentation
• Using professional photography and targeted online marketing
• Making the home easy for qualified buyers to view
• Reviewing buyer financing and concessions carefully
• Reevaluating the strategy when showing activity is limited

A seller's competition is not limited to recently sold homes. Buyers compare a property with every similar home currently available, including builder inventory and new construction incentives.

What the Market Means for Military and Veteran Homebuyers

Greater inventory and seller competition may be especially helpful for qualified military and veteran buyers using VA financing.

Depending on the property and the strength of the offer, a VA buyer may be able to negotiate seller assistance with closing costs, an interest-rate buydown, repairs, or other concessions permitted under VA loan guidelines.

Buyers relocating to Joint Base San Antonio should consider more than purchase price. Commute times, property taxes, homeowners insurance, school districts, utilities, and future resale demand can all affect the total cost and long-term value of a home.

Is San Antonio Currently a Buyer’s Market?

The June statistics point toward a more balanced market with buyer-friendly conditions in many areas. Inventory exceeded six months, average marketing time was 77 days, and homes sold for 93.8% of their original asking price.

However, it would be misleading to describe every San Antonio neighborhood as a buyer's market. Real estate is highly local. A properly priced home in a sought-after neighborhood may sell quickly, while a similar home in an area with substantial competition may require price adjustments or concessions.

The best way to understand the market is to review the recent sales, pending transactions, active competition, and pricing trends for the specific neighborhood and price range involved.
