Buyers Stay Active in 78209 During the First Half of Summer
San Antonio’s 78209 housing market continues to show remarkable stability with signs of resilience heading into the summer of 2025. Covering April through June, the data reveals consistent pricing trends, solid buyer demand, and a steady flow of closed transactions.
Pricing Trends Hold Steady with Modest Gains
The average sales price rose month-over-month from April’s $673,704 to $702,699 in June—marking a nearly 4.3% increase over the quarter. The median price also edged up from $540,000 in April to $550,000 in June, reflecting a market that remains attractive without overheating.
• April Median Price: $540,000
• May Median Price: $542,200
• June Median Price: $550,000
These moderate gains suggest that while buyers remain price-conscious, desirable homes—especially in centrally located and highly rated school zones—are still commanding competitive offers.
Sales Volume & Activity Stay Strong
Closed sales remained remarkably consistent throughout the quarter, with a slight bump in June.
• June Closed Sales: 328
• May Closed Sales: 317
• April Closed Sales: 325
The total dollar volume of sales also saw growth, climbing from $218.9 million in April to $230.5 million in June. This reflects both an increase in higher-value sales and stable transaction volume.
Market Efficiency: Homes Are Moving at a Steady Pace
The median days on market (DOM) held firm at 50–51 days across all three months, indicating a balanced pace between eager buyers and cautious sellers.
• April DOM: 50
• May DOM: 51
• June DOM: 50
This consistency suggests sellers are pricing realistically, and well-prepared homes continue to attract attention quickly.
Inventory Levels Reflect a Balanced Market
Housing supply remained stable throughout the quarter at roughly 5.5 to 5.6 months of inventory—hovering close to what many consider a “neutral market.”
• April Supply: 5.5 months
• May Supply: 5.6 months
• June Supply: 5.6 months
This means buyers have more choices than in past years but still need to act decisively when the right home hits the market.
Buyers Still Making Competitive Offers
The average percentage of list price received ranged from 97.1% in April to 97.3% in May, dipping slightly to 97% in June. This suggests that most buyers are still paying close to asking—particularly for homes that are priced correctly and in desirable condition.
