The San Antonio metro continued its sizzling year-on-year growth, beating last year’s metrics in virtually every category.

With cities across the country affected by the COVID pandemic, home sales in San Antonio grew 16% on average while total sales increased by a whopping 32%—compared to “just” 7% year-on-year growth last month.

“The significant growth in sales, compared to last year, shows the housing sector as a possible factor to move the economy forward,” said Kim Bragman, SABOR's 2020 Chairman of the Board. "We are hopeful to see a positive growth of sales for the remainder of the year."
