Selling in the Spring: What San Antonio Homeowners Need to Know in 2025

Thinking about selling your home this spring in San Antonio? Traditionally, spring has always been the hottest time to sell a home—but 2025 is adding a few twists to the story.

Let’s break down what’s true this year, what’s shifting, and how to make the most of the current market if you’re planning to list soon.

Spring Still Brings Strong Buyer Activity

There’s a reason real estate agents call spring the “Super Bowl” of home selling:

• Longer days and warmer weather make it easier for buyers to tour homes.

• Families prefer to move before the school year starts in the fall.

• May remains one of the most active months for closed sales in San Antonio.

So yes—spring is still a great time to list. But this year, being strategic is more important than ever.

The 2025 Market Is Shifting: Welcome to a Buyer’s Market

Here’s what’s happening in San Antonio as of Spring 2025:

• Inventory is rising: Over 10,000 active listings were on the market in April, up 11.4% month-over-month.

• More price drops: 57% of homes sold in April went below asking price, a clear indicator that buyers have leverage.

• Homes are sitting longer: Properties are taking more time to sell compared to last spring.

What this means for you: Sellers need to price competitively, stage thoughtfully, and work with a team that understands how to stand out in a crowded market.

Mortgage Rates Are Holding Steady—and That’s Good News

Mortgage rates are averaging 6.88% for a 30-year fixed in Texas, which is lower than late 2023 levels and encouraging more buyers to act now.

With a recent increase in pending sales and mortgage applications, buyers are adapting—and shopping. That’s good news for sellers ready to meet the market where it is.

Early Summer Still Offers a Selling Window

If you missed listing in April or May, don’t stress. June and July still offer great opportunities to sell:

• • • Many spring buyers are still searching if they didn’t find the right home.

    • While competition may cool slightly, demand remains active—especially for well-priced homes in desirable neighborhoods.
