San Antonio holds the line amidst a choppy housing market
San Antonio home prices were flat between July 2025 and July 2026 as Texas reacted to shifts in domestic migration and interest rates. A decline in both sales and listings reflects a market that is treading water after a lukewarm spring homebuying season.
