San Antonio - Beautiful Places & Bright Smiling Faces

Coming to San Antonio? Don’t worry - be happy!
For military families, Texas continues to be absolutely the healthiest housing market of all states and San Antonio is one of the better housing markets of the Nation’s large cities.
Military families arriving during the fall and winter months will likely find a very favorable buyer’s market. There is an ample supply of reasonably priced new and resale homes near the military bases and particulary in the Lackland AFB area. Quality rental housing is also readily available, however, since rental rates have increased significantly recently, military families are advised to explore the benefits of investing their housing allowance in their own home instead of passing the benefits to a landlord.
Military transferees should establish a relationship with a military savy Realtor at least 3 months prior to their reporting date. Find a Realtor who will help ease your transition and expedite your home search by providing periodic updates on market conditions, home prices, and mortgage loan opportunities. Ask the Realtor to set up a direct Multiple Listing Service (MLS) search for properties meeting your needs. The search gives you immediate notification when a property matching your search is recorded in the MLS. It will be faster and more accurate than any realty search engine found on the Internet.
By PCS time, your Realtor should have you well acquainted with your target home buying area and the conditions you will find during your home buying or renting search.
