I'm from Georgia. Rent is Ridiculously high. I'm really planning on moving to San Antonio in 1-2 years. But the thing is that I'm going by myself. Also 1200 is way too much for me, unless I find a job paying at least 20hr. I just don't want to get myself into something I can't handle. It's time for me to Get out Here on my own. ...It's crazy how much people want for a Apartment now days. Especially for a Deposit. Makes me feel like I'm 💩 out of luck

Just my opinion but in terms of SA it is better to buy a house sooner rather than later. I moved here a little over a year ago and bought a house in Oct 21. I was super nervous right up till the time of closing but have become more and more confident in the SA housing market. I'll present my reasons so anyone can take them for what they are worth. 1) Big picture: Since the 70's interest rates rise to only half of the previous high. With the fed funds rate rise in July we will breach that trend line. Meaning a pause is likely September and at some point in 2023 or 2024 they will have to lower interest rates. The futures betting on the fed funds rate confirms that "smart" money thinks the same. Why? The debt burden is unsustainable for the government at any higher of an interest rate. 2) Bullwhip effect: Is a supply chain phenomenon that demonstrates small variability effects rippling to large oscillations in a system. The bullwhip effect can be applied to any system though. COVID has unleashed the bullwhip effect across all markets and there will be deals on houses in many markets because of it. New build listings and price cuts can be seen in many markets (Austin is a good example). SA has to some degree but the market is buoyed by... 3) Strong job and wage growth. Unprecedented illegal immigrants came across the border. Although this is a shame, it benefits SA because many will end up here and further keep the job market supported. Also data from Redfin and other agencies show strong migration data to SA (even from Austin). 4) SA has the largest disabled veteran population. 100% veterans are eligible for property tax exemption. Although this a small percentage of the overall SA population, they will be able to afford higher priced houses and veterans are historically entrepreneurial. One of the largest VA hospitals was built off the 151 and there is a planned TOD development nearby. I am extremely bullish on this area personally and am hoping to put a climbing gym there :) 5) SA is expanding the airport and recently held a conference where the city attempted to woo international airlines to have routes added. Not sure what came out of it, but assuming they were somewhat successful there is a high correlation between air travel and regional economic prosperity. 6) Along the airlines route. Boeing has significantly increased their MRO activities out of SA and new T7 trainer aircraft for the military will arrive in a few years. It is safe to say they will continue to consolidate and develop their capabilities to support these BDS/BGS services which has helped bolster their revenue margins since the 737 fiasco. 7) Speculation: Musk wants his boring company to put a tunnel from the airport to downtown. high probability of success. Given Teslas footprint in Austin. I would imagine the next step would be to connect Austin and SA with a tunnel and the area will become a metroplex similar to DFW. 8) Supply chains take time to restructure. SA is very well positioned for manufacturing and distribution. Just as Boeing will continue to develop their footprint so will other companies. Amazon recently decided to not expand in many of the areas they had planned. The SA location was merely delayed. Also remember those illegal immigrants...I am willing to bet many of them end up working in manufacturing. I am not trying to persuade anybody. Just wanted to share my thoughts and the info I have. I wish I could provide articles to everything but that would take forever. Please do your own research. Good luck!!!

Lady stay in GA , SA is crazy

Thanks for saying cooling down instead of crashing or going to crash. Everyone is waiting for an imaginary 2008 crash that is not coming. It will cool down, but its just a temporary shock and awe pull back to the 50% increase in mortgage due to rate hikes. There is absolutely no 2008 style crash coming, because none of the dynamics are there for it, and the main driver for it - side bets on credit swaps were made illegal with the Dodd Frank act. 40%+- yearly rent increases will also drive people to do anything they can to own 4 walls and a door. People will just rent out their home or keep their home until this blows over, versus sell their hard earned equity at 40% losses. That simply won't happen at scale.

Yup, they sure are! We've seen some builders advertising lower rates, high 4's for example, if you use their preferred lender, AND locking them long term. There have been a few price decreases out there, but mostly right after they just raised their prices And realized they couldn't get that so they brought it back down again. Definitely more opportunity out there for buyers and more deals to be had right now.

That's true, builder's are offering incentives now. For example, Rialto in Cantera Hills, 15k for upgrades and another 15k for using there lender. Finally, a new community near Toyota. It's called VIDA, spec homes for 500k 😲 Builder's Highland Homes & Perry Homes. Never imagined Homes in the south would cost 500k for a 2,200Sf. Without a doubt, prices are🚀 in San Antonio.

🤣 I just Watched a video from 2 years ago. Any tips for A Guy like trying to move to San Antonio. It's just ME, MYSELF AND I. But 1200 a month for rent is Just out of my Tax Bracket 😂💯 maybe 800-1000. Of course I'm going to Stack up. But I really am planning on moving out There in a year or two.

Step 1: Price cuts (see Zillow) ✅, Step 2: Incentives ✅ Step 3: Depreciation - price drop/crash. Lots of similarities still from 2007-2009. Vegas crashed by 60% back then. I don’t care what your time horizon is, you are better waiting for minimum 6 months and more likely 1-2yrs to buy. YOY S.A. And Austin listings up ~12-14% while sales down ~ 12-15%. And more of that trend to come. The Fed isn’t stopping and don’t be fooled by ‘low’ unemployment. I’be got people in S.A. trying desperately to dump their inventory on me as they got overextended. That light at the end of the tunnel is an oncoming train.
