Home prices in San Antonio have more than doubled in the last 3 years

[@Matakui2011]

Men, I live in San Diego and we are debating on moving to Texas. It is between San Antonio and another place. If I do make the transition there, I will definitely get in touch with you.

[@SanAntonioTexasLiving]

We'll be here when you're ready😎

[@brucegelman5582]

The problem with new construction is the entry point is too high.

[@genwe1894]

Do you think the NW area east of 1604 near helotes will continue to be a nice area? Do you think it’ll be easy to rent out a home there? I’m looking at certain homes in the area and want to see if it’s a safe a good area

[@SanAntonioTexasLiving]

There are a lot of really nice neighborhoods right in there off of Hausman, Prue, and Babcock and I'd expect those areas to continue doing well, both for desirability and appreciation. You'd also be pretty close to UTSA and major employers like Valero, USAA, and the Medical Center so there should be good demand for rentals around there. Were you looking mainly for an investment or would you be living there for a time?

[@genwe1894]

@@SanAntonioTexasLiving mainly investment. I’ll keep you in mind when ready to make the purchase. Your videos are amazing!!!

[@SanAntonioTexasLiving]

@@genwe1894 Gotcha, you can expect to do really well in that area. The NE side of SA is also really good for rentals too. Rental rates tend to be a bit higher there relative to price and you're also close to Randolph AFB, so there's usually a steady stream of military tenants. My team and I have worked with a lot of investor clients and many of us own rentals/AirBnb's as well, so we're always keeping an eye out for good opportunities. What was your timeline on finding something?

[@margaretgray4170]

Which is the best area? Vintage Oaks or Stone Oak? I see a house in Vintage Oaks that I really like. It has the acreage I'm looking for. Thanks!

[@SanAntonioTexasLiving]

It kinda just depends on what's important to you in a community. If you're wanting to be further out in a more rural setting, Vintage Oaks is definitely the way to go... It's a true acreage community, the amenities there are also really awesome and there are newer homes there too. Stone Oak does have some options for larger lot sizes, but it's a more densely populated area with a lot more traffic... although you'll be a lot closer to restaurants, shopping, and entertainment. Both are at the top of the list for desirable neighborhoods in NB and SA, so you can't go wrong either way. Have you had a chance to connect with our team yet? We'd be happy to talk further about the home you're looking at and help you explore all of your options in different areas.

[@margaretgray4170]

@@SanAntonioTexasLiving .. Thanks...that info was helpful in helping to make a decision. I'm in CA and will be relocating in the near future!

[@margaretgray4170]

Oh and what about Cantera Hills?

[@SanAntonioTexasLiving]

@@margaretgray4170 Now I really like Cantera Hills! It's probably the best of both Vintage Oaks and Stone Oak. It's still currently developing and all of the homes are custom on larger acreage lots, so you get that "far out rural feel", but it's only 10-15 minutes away from the La Cantera area with all of the shopping, restaurants, golfing, trails, and entertainment. There's a lot of topography in that area of Scenic Loop Rd, so you get the really nice views, pretty sunsets, and rolling hills. I just happened to drive by there last Summer, not even knowing it was there, and I was so impressed that I had to take my wife by there to check it out LOL! Another community that's also really beautiful and right by Cantera Hills is The Canyons at Scenic Loop. I see where this is going... you've got pretty good taste😎

[@repurposedrestoration1498]

The homes that are available in San Antonio for $300,000 -$400,000 cost around $1,000,000 in Chicago. its impossible to find a home at SA prices here. That's why we are moving out in the next few months.

[@SanAntonioTexasLiving]

Most of our clients tell us the cost of living in SA is the main reason they decided to move here. They just get so much more here than where they're moving from & it's cool to see how much better they're doing and how much happier they are after they've been here for a while.

[@DWayne-ne5yh]

Same- I’m hoping to move to San Antonio in 3-6 months

[@SanAntonioTexasLiving]

That'll be here before you know it! How's the home search going?

[@derrickd3012]

Hello and thank you again for another great informative video. Family and I will be in San Antonio this summer for our move to Texas. Hope you have a great day

[@SanAntonioTexasLiving]

Absolutely, always happy to be a resource 🙌🏾.

[@eddiestewart6125]

Nothing's the same this is 2004 you behind time prices have went up

[@dezareeleon1193]

What is a health insurance like and how do you go about getting it before moving out there?

[@SanAntonioTexasLiving]

That would likely differ from one employer to the next.

[@margaretgray4170]

Please review Vintage Oaks area in New Braunfels! Saw a property there I really like! Thank you!

[@SanAntonioTexasLiving]

Oh, it's definitely on the list coming soon. I have some really beautiful footage of that community and it's amenities. Super nice area! Were you thinking about moving there?

[@margaretgray4170]

@@SanAntonioTexasLiving ..Yes. I see a house there I really like! It is still under construction!

[@Luis-wz4bl]

I enjoy watching all your videos. My family and are looking to move out there. Is it still possible purchase a home under 300k and what areas would you recommend. I plan on going out there in the summer to check out some communities. Thank you

[@SanAntonioTexasLiving]

Hey, thanks for watching! For sure, you can still get a home around $300k or less, even with new construction there's still some options out there. We've recently helped several folks in that price point on the new construction side with KB Homes, M/I Homes, Lennar Homes, and Starlight Homes. Some of the best communities for new construction are in the Far West side at The Trails of Culebra, The Preserve at Culebra, Falcon Landing, and Winding Brook. Existing homes would be around 20yrs old in the same area or on the Northeast side of town. Summer will be here before you know it and we're already having conversations with folks planning their move later this year. Would you be open to talking with a member of our team in the next week or so to help with getting a plan together for a smooth transition?

[@mollynguyen834]

@@SanAntonioTexasLiving hello, do you know which area is on red clay? I heard it was in the the West side, but not so sure if it’s true. 😃

[@SanAntonioTexasLiving]

I'm not sure about the exact soil names, but I'm familiar with the areas that do have more expansive soils, which can cause foundation issues. It tends to be a bigger deal in the following parts of San Antonio: -The Northeast inside 1604 around Thousand Oaks -Certain parts of Converse & Universal City -The inner West side just inside & outside Loop 410, & inside 1604 -In some of the historic areas around downtown, Alamo Heights, and Terrell Hills Once you get outside Loop 1604 you're usually good in the Far West, North West, and Far North areas of the city. The ground is a lot more rocky in those parts. Where you looking into areas for a home purchase?

[@mollynguyen834]

@@SanAntonioTexasLiving Thank you, I’m looking in the NorthWest side, possible in the summer to the end of 2023. I also like the far west side that you have mentioned but it bit far for school. 😃

[@SanAntonioTexasLiving]

You shouldn't have anything to worry about in NW San Antonio. That's a really nice side of town too that a lot of people tend to focus on. Anything we can do to help with the move?

[@CamilleClarke]

I'm between Houston and San Antonio.

[@SanAntonioTexasLiving]

My wife and I looked at Houston too before moving to SA, but we just couldn't get over the flooding issues and how far apart everything is with the traffic. Although we do always enjoy the city when visiting family over there. What's important to you in deciding where you go next?

[@CamilleClarke]

@@SanAntonioTexasLiving The flooding is a concern for me. I want somewhere with job prospects and a good school district for my son. He is 6 and currently in Kindergarten. So when I move, I really want him to be in a good environment. I have been looking at Stone Oak. I move in about 8 weeks when my lease ends, so let see.

[@AceofCrazy89]

It’s always stupid to me when people blame cities and counties for rising property taxes without mentioning that the state not adequately funding education

[@ginas9317]

House prices are still high and unaffordable, taxes high and our wages are not keeping up with house inflation. If I hear one more realtor tell me that San Antonio is one of the most affordable cities, I’m going to scream. Maybe if I was coming from Cali or NY but I’m not. Worst time to buy a house in history. House prices at all time high and interest rates are shooting up.
