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

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

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

  1. median sold price is not provided in the supplied metrics, so a representative recent sale value cannot be stated here; its absence means transaction-based valuation must be interpreted from trends and qualitative liquidity signals rather than a single median sale figure. data unavailable in the dataset

  2. price year-over-year trend: flat combined with market temperature: neutral suggests pricing stability with limited directional momentum; this implies sellers and buyers should expect a balanced negotiating environment rather than rapid appreciation or depreciation.

  3. median market rent: $1,850 and rent year-over-year trend: down indicate rental rates are easing while overall rental demand remains present; investors should note lower short-term cash-flow pressure even as longer-term fundamentals remain supported. down

  4. interest rate pressure: moderate and the provided mortgage context — Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates in San Antonio, TX are 6.46% compared to the 6.25% average observed earlier in 2026 — point to slightly higher financing costs than earlier in the year, which may contribute to cautious buyer activity and finer price negotiation around listed amounts.
