The increase comes during the spring homebuying season, which is typically the strongest period of the year for residential sales. The median home price in San Antonio fell 1% from May of last year to $306,000. Sellers received nearly 93% of their original list price, on average.

The average time a home spent on the market was 83 days, up 15% from last year. Existing-home sales continue to outperform new-home construction as inventory grows and prices remain relatively stable, SABOR reported.
