San Antonio area home sales remain at a record high as we move into the fourth quarter of 2019. November reported 2,448 homes sold, which is a two percent increase over this same month last year according to the Multiple Listing Service Report from the San

“San Antonio and the surrounding area remain competitive for home buyers and sellers as we move into the new year. November reported over 10,000 active listings on the market, with over 3,000 new listings added to the market in November,” said Grant Lopez, SABOR’s 2019 Chairman of the Board. “This means there is a variety of options for those interested in buying or selling, so consult a REALTOR® to discuss your options.”
