I’m planning on moving to San Anotnio to renevate and sell houses and keep some of them for rentals. Does anyone have some info that leed me in the right direction? Also How is it living in SAn Antonio?
Hi Jessica, I live in San Antonio and the real estate is cooling off but not experiencing the drop in real estate market like in Dallas and other cities. People will say “NORTHSIDE! NORTHSIDE! NORTHSIDE!” but I think it’s a overbuilt market that is very susceptible to the overall national downturn in real estate. There are actually some great fixer uppers in the Southeast side. Any neighborhood along I37 south of Southcross out towards Military Drive. Good deals to be made down there. I also suggest checking out neighborhoods in the NOrth Central area. That would be north of downtown, East of I-10 but West of Hwy 281 and no farther North than about Basse Rd.

It’s the website for San Antonio Real Estate Investor Association. It’s basically a business association catered to people like you (and hopefully me one day).
Good luck. I love living in SA. I’ve lived in other towns but San Antonio is my home.
