The real estate market may be booming in Texas, but that doesn't mean you have to spend a ton of money on a house. At least not here in San Antonio. We've been digging around town and found some beautiful homes at an even more attractive price.
Here are five of our favorite houses on the market for under $200,000:
1. 11907 Flame Tree Cove is 2,033 square-feet of airy space with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The stone exterior has serious curb appeal, but it's the floor plan and high ceilings that makes us swoon. And so does the price: $199,999.
2. Located in Universal City, 362 Kimberly Dr. is ready for move in with an updated kitchen, floors, and a beautiful stone fireplace in the living room. There are four bedrooms and two bathrooms within the 2,515 square foot home priced at $189,000.
3. Enter 9323 Overland Way, a three-bedroom, two-bathroom house with 1675 square feet of open space. Though it's not large, the open floor plan and natural light \ make the home feel bigger than it actually is. Our favorite part? The covered patio in the back. It's on the market for $182,500.
4. Zero in on the details of 27 Rainy Ave. and you'll be sold. This three-bedroom, two-bathroom home has beautiful wood and tile flooring throughout the first floor. Within the 1,750 square feet is ample closet space in the master bedroom (two walk-in closets), a loft area upstairs, and a sizeable laundry room. It's located by the Leon Creek Greenway and offers great views from the multi-level deck for $162,500.
5. 18922 Lookout Mountain Trail is a small sanctuary for folks who want to escape the city. Nestled in Helotes, this 587 square-foot home — with one bedroom and one bathroom — makes for the perfect cozy getaway. There's a small balcony perfect for dining outside under a starry sky. It's listing price? $129,900.

If you've ever wanted to live right in the heart of historic downtown San Antonio, the opportunity is now a little closer. The Continental Residences is now open for tours and will be signing leases by the end of February.
“The Continental Residences is designed for the people who make downtown vibrant: professionals, creatives, university students, and anyone who wants to be at the center of an exciting, emerging neighborhood,” said General Manager Sunny Davila, in November 2025. “By honoring the historic character of the site and adding modern residences and amenities, we’ve created a community that truly reflects the energy and potential of downtown San Antonio.”
The complex is located right on top of the historic Continental Hotel at 332 W. Commerce St. Originally completed in 1898, the hotel was a staple of downtown for nearly a century before converting to office space in the 1970s. It has sat vacant for roughly a decade before being redeveloped by Weston Urban. Now, it will be a 16-story, 290-unit, mixed-income residential community that puts residents within walking distance of City Hall, the Bexar County Courthouse, UT San Antonio's School of Data Science, and Market Square.

Guided tours can be booked at thecontinentalresidences.com. Floor plans come in studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom, some with breathtaking views of downtown, and square footage ranges from 400 to 1,400. Prices start at $1,200 a month and can get as high as $5.000. Amenities include an indoor-outdoor fitness gym, business center, and resort-style pool on the sixth floor. The complex is pet-friendly, with a maximum of two per apartment.
Created by Weston Urban in collaboration with the Bexar County Public Facility Corp., the Continental Residences said in press releases that 50 percent of the units are designated for residents earning less than 80 percent of the area's median income, thereby enhancing affordable housing opportunities in the downtown area.
Continental Residences is part of a massive overhaul of the historic block by Weston Urban. Their other projects include preserving the Continental Hotel itself, the 1926 Arana Building, and the 18th-century De La Garza House.
