Report Date: April 2026
Market Temperature: NEUTRAL
Scope: Single-Family Residential (SFR) listings and comps only


Executive Overview

The median sold price in San Antonio, TX (ZIP: 78223) is $186,000, reflecting a market that has seen localized price softness. This price point indicates a shift in buyer sentiment, as the area has experienced a decrease in market activity. The overall market appears to be stabilizing, with a median listing price of $228,500, suggesting a notable gap between seller expectations and actual transaction values. This discrepancy may indicate a cautious approach from buyers amidst elevated inventory levels and longer market times.

Transaction velocity is currently slower, with properties spending a median of 187 days on market. This extended time frame may reflect a cooling buyer demand, as evidenced by the neutral market temperature and the down trend in year-over-year rent growth. The market is characterized by excess supply relative to sales activity, which could further influence pricing dynamics in the upcoming months.
