Average new home prices in San Antonio fell during January sales slump

New home sales fell in Austin in January, the report said.

A new statewide real estate report has shown a slow decline in new home sales across Texas, including in the San Antonio metro area.

The latest New Home Sales Index by HomesUSA.com discovered 67 fewer homes were sold in San Antonio from December 2024 to January 2025. The three-month moving average of new home sales in the metro was 1,008 in January, versus 1,075 sales in December.

Housing prices also declined in January, with the average new home in San Antonio dropping to $337,414. That's nearly $7,000 less than the average price in December, which came out to $344,343.

While these declines may seem atypical, a sales slump is actually normal during the winter season, according to HomesUSA founder and CEO Ben Caballero.

Active new home listings in San Antonio flattened from December to January, with 5,230 active listings on the market last month.

The report found new home sales dropped not only in San Antonio, but also in Austin, Houston, and Dallas-Fort Worth.

Houston's three-month moving average of new home sales was the highest out of all four metros with 2,046 sales made in January, but that figure technically decreased by 138 homes from December.

Dallas-Fort Worth sold 1,847 new homes last month in a 43-home decrease from December.

Austin the fewest new homes sold last month out of the four major Texas metros: At 809 homes sold.

"January sales are often lower than December in Austin as builders push hard to close the year with as many sales as possible, as I mentioned in last month’s report," Caballero said. "Austin builders were offering discounts, buyer incentives, and Realtor bonuses for December closings. A slower January is not unusual for that reason."

January housing prices fell in Houston to an average $395,515, and Austin's average new home price fell to $483,056. This wasn't the case in Dallas-Fort Worth, however, as prices increased by nearly $2,600 to $496,498 last month.
