The snapshot
- •Closings tracked, last 6 months: 5,819
- •Median sold price, last 6 months: $264,999

What the numbers say
Resideline tracked 5,819 closed sales in San Antonio over the last six months, with a median closing price of $264,999. That median is the midpoint of what buyers actually paid, not what sellers hoped to get, which is why it moves differently from the asking prices you see on listing sites. The middle half of those sales closed between $199,999 and $375,000. That spread matters more than the headline median: where a specific property sits inside it decides whether the citywide number helps you or misleads you. These are the closings Resideline tracks and may differ from complete county or municipal records. The large tracked sample provides substantial market-level evidence. 92% of the San Antonio closings we track here are single-family houses, so these figures primarily reflect that segment, and the citywide $/sqft figure primarily reflects that segment as well. Across the 5,800 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $130 and $189 per square foot.

Where San Antonio sale prices land

Among the 129 Texas markets with a published band, San Antonio's middle-half spread ($199,999 to $375,000) ranks 118th from the narrowest.

- •Listed to under contract: a median of 42 days, across 4,633 San Antonio closings Resideline tracked in the last six months

The San Antonio angle
San Antonio hands a pricing exercise both things it needs. Across 5,819 closings Resideline tracked over the last six months, the median closed sale price was $264,999, and the middle half of sales closed between $199,999 and $375,000. Because the band is unremarkable, that median carries real predictive weight, and the question worth spending your time on becomes whether your subject is typical for the city rather than how much uncertainty surrounds the citywide figure. With this much closed volume behind you, filters are cheap: match on the attributes you actually care about and let the comp count take the hit.

From market read to offer price
A market read is the backdrop. The decision still comes down to one property and one number: what it is actually worth and what you should pay. Every Resideline report opens with this same market snapshot for the subject's exact ZIP code, then gives you the property's value, the sold comps behind it, and a market rent estimate. Pricing a specific deal? The free ARV calculator, rehab cost estimator, BRRRR calculator and rental property calculator run the numbers in about a minute.
And we show our work. Every estimate is frozen while the home is for sale, so it cannot be revised once the sale price is known. Grading it is a different matter in Texas: because sale prices are not public record here, a confirmed closing price reaches us for only a small share of Texas homes, and most Texas estimates stay frozen and ungraded. The accuracy scoreboard is therefore a national record rather than a Texas one. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.
Run any San Antonio address through Resideline and you will see the local market and the property's value together, in one report.
