2021 has started off with quite a bang for the San Antonio housing market!

Homes sales in January jumped another 22% year-on-year, following a 17% increase in 2020.

Despite 2,878 new listings in January, active listings dropped 73.9% across the region. Housing inventory fell 1.3 months to a record-low 0.4 months of inventory, as homes spent an average of 33 days on market—literally half of what it was in 2020.

“There is strength across every price point and demand for every product,” said Vaike O’Grady, regional director with housing market research firm Zonda.

“Despite developers building as quickly as…
