A close look at asking price, sold price, and pace

When asking and closing prices stay close together, you have to be selective about where to push. In San Antonio, TX, last month's sold price landed at 98.3% of asking, and that keeps the conversation focused on value, not wishful thinking.
I read that as a market that still expects real pricing discipline. The typical sale took 70 days, so I would not lean on speed to justify a weak offer or a stretched listing price. For buyers, the lesson is simple compare value carefully and stay calm. For sellers in San Antonio, TX, the lesson is just as clear the market is still paying attention to price, and overreaching can slow the process down. Compare the asking price to recent closings. Watch the 70-day timeline closely. Keep your pricing argument honest.
