Market Trends & Context
Understanding Market Temperature
A Neutral market indicates balanced conditions where neither buyers nor sellers have a strong advantage, typically characterized by flat price trends, extended but stable days on market, and moderate inventory relative to sales.
Current Mortgage Rate Context
Market-level mortgage rate comparison for this area:
Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates in San Antonio, TX are 6.46% compared to the 6.25% average observed earlier in 2026.
Note: Interest rate comparisons provide market context. The existing "Interest Rate Pressure" metric above shows the qualitative market impact.
Key Findings
-
The most reliable indicator of recent market value is the median sold price of $222,000, which represents realized transaction pricing in this ZIP code and suggests current market value around that level; given the neutral market temperature, this sold price should guide valuation more than asking prices.
-
There is a noticeable spread between the median listing price of $245,000 and the median sold price, which may indicate pricing friction and seller expectations above recent transaction levels and could suggest sellers consider aligning offers closer to recent sales to accelerate deals.
-
Market velocity appears slower based on the median days on market of 110, which, combined with elevated inventory relative to sales activity, suggests slower sales velocity and that buyers may have more negotiating leverage on price or terms.
-
Rents and financing dynamics affect investment considerations: the median market rent of $1,650 is trending down year-over-year, and interest rate pressure is moderate with local 30-year fixed mortgage rates at 6.46% compared to an earlier 6.25%, which together may constrain investor returns and reduce buyer purchasing power in the near term.
