Although not totally immune to national realty market trends, San Antonio has, so far, been only minimally influenced by the country’s mortgage market mess and realty market down turn. Currently, San Antonio’s buyers and sellers are both in relatively good positions. Although resale homes continue to hold much of their value, a buyer can still get a good deal, especially in the new home market where builders are eager to sell their inventory before the end of the year. Although new home builders won’t usually haggle on price, they might throw in additional incentives to move a property.

In December, the situation might change more dramatically in favor of buyers. It’s too early to tell.

Here are the market stats for San Antonio single-family detached home listings as of 20 November 2007.

active listings: 12269 - stable - neutral for buyers and sellers, except for new construction homes, where the advantage goes to the buyer

average list price for most recent sales: $185,047 decreasing gradually - good for buyers

average sale price for most recent sales: $178,448 decreasing gradually - good for buyers

average days on the market for most recent sales: 74 and increasing - good for buyers
